Indonesia has a relatively high prevalence of nutrition-related problems among adolescents. Students of Islamic boarding schools are one group of adolescents in which similar nutritional intake is given to each student. This fact may affect the nutritional status of students. The purpose of this study was to determine the nutritional status of the students at Islamic boarding schools in Aceh Besar Regency. This quantitative study was conducted with a descriptive method and a cross-sectional design. By using a proportionate stratified random sampling technique, a number of 298 students were chosen as the samples. The data collection was carried out by measuring body weight and height and calculating the z-score. The results showed that the majority of the samples, namely 213 students (71.5%), showed good nutritional status. In addition, there were 71 respondents (23.8%) in the over-nutrition category, and 3 respondents (1%) in the under-nutrition category. Moreover, as many as 11 respondents (3.7%) were in obesity category. Those results indicate that nutritional problems in Islamic boarding schools in Aceh Besar Regency still require attention from the boarding schools and other related parties. It is suggested that the Islamic boarding schools monitor the students’ nutritional status on a regular basis and cooperate with the local public health centers to design appropriate health promotion programs.
