The study adopted quantitative paradigm and specifically made use of cross sectional survey research design. One research question guided the study. The study targeted 9 public boarding secondary schools and 3 schools were selected using cluster sampling procedure. Simple random sampling was used to select 45 Form Three students. Questionnaire was used to collect data. The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 21. The data were presented in frequencies and percentages. The study established that students had positive attitude towards Geography. Therefore, their poor performance in the subject maybe as a result of other factors such as teachers’ methodology and or educational resources.
