Stratified-purposive sampling was used in determining the respondents comprising of 100 pupils per district. The analysis of data revealed that the pupils extremely like the smell, texture and taste of pasteurized dairy cattle milk. When subjected to statistical analysis however, it was found that there is no significant relationship between the acceptability level of the respondents when group according to age, sex and grade level. It can be concluded that pasteurized dairy cattle milk can be used for supplemental feeding in schools to improve the nutritional level of the school children for optimum learning.
