    (African Journal of Social Issues, 2024) Bikorimana G.; Bimenyimana, P. C.; Umuhoza KNJ; Dusabirema T; Mukunde F, Kambanda S.
    The study investigated the impact of the school feeding program on students' performance in twelve years of basic education in the Nyamasheke District of Rwanda. It specifically examined the influence of the school feeding program on the student's performance, explored the level of effectiveness of the program, examined the contribution of the policy to learners' social cohesion and determined the level of students' academic performance. To reach the above objectives, a descriptive study was designed. The quantitative approach was adopted and structured questionnaires were administered to 100 respondents selected using purposive and network sampling techniques. The study found that the program is generally appreciable. It also found that the program contributes to students' cohesion, cooperation, and communication, thus helping them improve their performance. However, the study suggests several challenges to the program, including a lack of proper implementation. The study recommends that some issues must be tackled, including reviewing the investment in the program, hence proper implementation.
