Abstract : The study, which looked at the management of mid-day meals programs in community schools and the motivational role it played in students' teaching and learning activities, covered two community basic schools in the Amargadhi municipality of Dadeldhura district in the far-western province. In the case of Nepal, the school mid-day meals program has been implemented for half a century, but so far it has not been implemented in all the community basic schools in the country. Therefore, my study is based on the management of the mid-day meals program in community schools and how it motivates students to learn. Although the mid-day meals program was already implemented in both the community schools, the school mid-day meals program has been closed for almost 10 years as per the government policy after these two schools were later included in the municipality. In some schools, the mid-day meals program is prepared by the school and fed to the students, while in the community basic schools within the Amargadhi municipality, the students brought food boxes from their home. Although the management part of the mid-day meal is not seen hopeful nevertheless it has a great impact on student's regularity in the school activities and learning outcome.

Keywords : Mid-Day Meal, Hunger Management, Motivational Learning, Community Schools.
