This study examines the role of school principals in the supervision process to enhance certified teacher performance at MIN 1 and MIN 5 Pidie Jaya. Data collection was done through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The study highlights three key aspects; 1) Planning Supervision Principals work collaboratively with teachers to plan supervision, focusing on structured schedules, clear goals, and appropriate techniques to ensure accurate performance assessments. This planning creates a supportive environment and boosts teacher performance. 2) Implementation of Supervision: Principals efficiently conduct supervision through filling out instruments, reviewing teaching materials, observing classes, and evaluating learning outcomes. Regular guidance and motivation are provided to improve the quality of teaching and teacher performance. 3) Evaluation of Supervision: Evaluation involves providing structured feedback, follow-up actions such as improvement plans, and additional training. This helps teachers improve professionally. The study concludes that through collaborative planning, implementation, and evaluation, the supervision process at MIN 1 and MIN 5 Pidie Jaya effectively improves the performance of certified teachers, which in turn enhances the overall quality of education.
