Abstract

The Wafa Fest program at SDIT Insan Madani Palopo has not yet undergone a systematic evaluation to determine its alignment with the goals and targets of identifying and developing students with religious aptitude. This study aims to evaluate the Wafa Fest program using the Goal-Oriented Evaluation Model (GOEM), focusing on goal alignment, target fulfillment, and program outcomes. An evaluative research design employing a mixed-methods approach was utilized. The study subjects included the school principal, teachers/organizing committee members, and students. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (percentages), while qualitative data underwent data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Assessment categories were determined based on percentage intervals established in the evaluation instrument, with the "excellent" category assigned to the highest percentage range. The results indicate that all GOEM components fell into the "excellent" category, with percentage ranges of 87.35%–100%. Specifically, goal alignment ranged from 89.58%–100%, target fulfillment from 87.94%–100%, and program outcomes from 87.35%–95%. Overall, the findings demonstrate that the Wafa Fest program has met its established goals and targets, yielding results that support the identification and development of students' potential in the religious domain. These evaluation results can serve as a basis for the school to sustain the program while strengthening follow-up measures for nurturing students with potential
