Evaluation of the Tahfiz Al-Qur'an Program for High School Students

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Tahfiz Al-Qur'an Program in high school students in Bulukumba Regency, especially at SMAN 1 Bulukumba and MAN 2 Bulukumba, using the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) evaluation model. The main purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the program in improving students' memorization skills, comprehension, and religious character formation, as well as identifying supporting and inhibiting factors in its implementation. This study uses a qualitative approach with a multi-location case study method. Data was collected through interviews with tahfiz teachers, students, and principals, observations of tahfiz activities, and program documentation. The results of the analysis showed that the program received support from schools, parents, and external institutions, despite differences in resources between the two schools. The implementation process runs routinely, but still faces obstacles in terms of time allocation and limited facilities. In general, the program has a positive impact on improving Qur'an memorization, student involvement in religious activities, and character building. This research shows the importance of optimizing facilities, teacher training, and integrating tahfiz programs in the curriculum in order to contribute more to the spiritual and moral development of students at the secondary level.
