This study aims to determine the effect of stunting on the learning achievement of elementary school children. This study was an observational analytic study with cross-sectional study design. The sample in this study were 73 elementary school students who met the inclusive criteria with total sampling techniques, data collection through interviews that referred to the questionnaire, and direct observation. Data analysis with the chi square test is presented in tabular and narrative form. The results showed that students who experience stunting would have less learning performance with p = 0.013. This result confirms that the incidence of child stunting in school will affect their academic achievement.
