This study focuses on assessing the administration of the KIR LIBA program's impact on enhancing students' writing abilities at MAN 1 Yogyakarta. It employs a qualitative research approach and data collection methods such as observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis involves data reduction and the presentation of findings in a narrative format. The research is framed within the context of the POAC management objectives theory. The research findings reveal the following aspects of the KIR LIBA program's management: (1) Planning: The KIR LIBA program initiates its planning phase by setting objectives and preparing program-related matters for the upcoming year. It includes creating work programs and budget estimates for the period; (2) Organizing: Organizational management structures are established to facilitate the division of responsibilities and tasks among different divisions, ensuring that each division fulfills its designated responsibilities and work programs; (3) Implementation: The program puts the prepared work programs into action for the year. KIR LIBA involves eight types of work programs and activities carried out throughout the year, with each program executed on a weekly, monthly, and yearly basis; (4) Monitoring and Evaluation: Continuous monitoring occurs during every activity, and an annual evaluation takes place during the handover process and the submission of management accountability reports. The madrasah head conducts the evaluation, the head of student affairs, and the KIR LIBA coaching staff. The management strategies employed by the KIR LIBA team have contributed to notable improvements in students' writing skills at MAN 1 Yogyakarta. This improvement is exemplified by the increased number of students successfully participating in international writing competitions during the study period. However, it is worth noting that this research provides a broad overview of program management without delving into specific details. Therefore, it is recommended that future researchers explore these aspects in more depth. It could include sharing specific examples of recent evaluation outcomes conducted by relevant institutions to further assist in achieving the program's implementation objectives.
