This study examines the optimization of educational governance through the digitalization of school administration based on information systems. It aims to analyze the effectiveness of digital systems in improving administrative efficiency, accuracy, and transparency. A mixed-method approach was employed, involving 35 respondents through questionnaires and 6 key informants via interviews in a public high school in Central Java. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were thematically interpreted. The findings reveal that digitalization significantly enhances administrative performance and governance quality, although challenges remain in digital literacy and infrastructure. This study offers a novel integrated perspective on measuring governance improvement through digital transformation at the school level.
