Plasmodium coinfection with hookworm and/or  Schistosoma mansoni  has detrimental effects on human's hemoglobin level. This study aimed to determine the effects of plasmodium, hookworm, and  S. mansoni  infections on hemoglobin level among febrile school age children in Northwest Ethiopia. A cross-sectional study was conducted from April 2016 to August 2016.  Plasmodium  and helminths infections were detected using Giemsa stain and formol-ether concentration techniques, respectively. Hemoglobin level was determined using Hemocue method. Among 333 children, 143 (42.9%), 49 (14.75%), and 22 (6.6%) had  Plasmodium, hookworm, and Schistosoma mansoni  infections, respectively. The prevalence of  Plasmodium -hookworm and  Plasmodium - Schistosoma mansoni  coinfections was 18 (12.6%) and 4 (2.8%) in children, respectively. The overall prevalence of anaemia in children was 41.4%. Effect of  Plasmodium , hookworm, and  Schistosoma mansoni  on hemoglobin level was high. Therefore, febrile children should be screened for  Plasmodium , hookworm,  Schistosoma mansoni,  and anaemia simultaneously in malaria endemic areas.
