Abstract: This research aims to evaluate the role of principal supervision in improving teacher performance, identify obstacles related to academic supervision analysis, and design strategies to overcome these obstacles. This research was conducted at a public elementary school in Blora Regency. Qualitative data analysis techniques were used in this research. Sampling used purposive sampling technique. Data collection through observation and in-depth interviews. The informants taken included the Principal, Teachers, Supervisors, Chair of the School Committee, and Students. The results of the study show that academic supervision is carried out by the principles of academic supervision by going through the stages of planning, implementing, evaluating, and following up. The techniques and models of academic supervision that are applied vary according to the situation and condition of the school, as well as the principles of academic supervision that are applied. The obstacles found include the role of the principal as a supervisor who is often given additional tasks by the department, teachers as the party being supervised have various activities and competencies, as well as a lack of facilities and infrastructure. Another obstacle is the limited study time and the limited communication skills of students. Efforts have been made, among others, by rearranging schedules, involving teachers in training, allocating budgets for new facilities and infrastructure through the School Operational Assistance program, and building good cooperation with school committees.
