Background: This study examines the educational transformation at SD Muhammadiyah Pacul in response to the demands of the digital era. The main focus is to explore how the school implements digital technology in teaching and learning processes and how this affects the quality of Islamic education. Purpose: The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of technology integration and provide recommendations for strengthening institutional capacity. Method: Using a case study approach through interviews, observations, and document analysis, the findings reveal that digital technology enhances student interactivity and engagement in learning. However, challenges remain in terms of teacher training and technological infrastructure. Result: These findings have broader implications for Islamic education practices in Indonesia, emphasizing the importance of building a digital ecosystem that not only focuses on technical proficiency but also embeds Islamic values through innovative learning. Digital reform in Islamic schools should be directed toward policies that promote religious digital literacy, strengthen teacher training based on Islamic principles, and ensure equitable technological infrastructure. Conclusion: In this way, digital transformation becomes both an instrument of da’wah and a means of improving the quality of Islamic education in the modern era.
