This study investigates solid waste management among school students in Sri Lanka. The disposal of Solid Waste has become one of the major environmental issues in Sri Lanka. Empirical studies suggest that solid waste management is needed to start at the school level to give authentic learning experiences and make them well aware. The sampling method was simple random sampling. The total sample was 2000 students and responded total numbers of students were 875 students. The study utilized a quantitative survey design with a questionnaire instrument. Data was collected through the postal questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were used to examine the level of solid waste management is implementing in the schools. Results showed that most of the students are well aware of solid waste management. But the practices of solid waste management in real life are low when compared to the level of awareness. Introducing and implementing of solid waste management program is a typical step to making good practices among school communities. Future studies are recommended for identifying best practices of solid waste management among school communities.
