<![CDATA[Stunting is the impaired growth and development in toddlers due to chronic malnutrition that causes the child's height to be too short for his/her age. A child is said to be stunted if the z-score is less than -2SD/standard deviation. Epidemiological data show that 1 in 4 children in the world suffers from stunting. Poor nutrients in the first 1000 days of life can cause impaired maturation of brain function and impaired learning achievement when children enter school age. This study is an observational analytic study that uses a cross-sectional design. A total sampling technique was used to collect the samples of 355 children from grades 2 and 3 of the State Islamic Elementary School (MIN) 5 and State Islamic Elementary School (MIN) 9 of Banda Aceh on August 21 and 22, 2019. Student height was measured using microtoise, while learning achievement was measured using the report card grades of the last semester in Indonesian Language, Mathematics and Sports, Physical Education and Health (PJOK) subject. The results show that 38 children experienced stunting. In the Chi-Square test with a significance value of 95% and ? = 0.05, the probability value of the Indonesian Language is p>0.05 (p-value=0.374), Mathematics is p>0.05j (p-value = 0.730), and PJOK is p>0.05 (p-value = 0.623). These results prove the absence of a significant relationship between stunting and student achievement in grades 2 and 3 at MIN 5 and MIN 9 of Banda Aceh. This may occur because the factors that influence learning achievement is not only the physiology factor, so additional research is needed to obtain more information]]>
