The results of the study show that: (1) Planning a science laboratory includes the procurement of science laboratory equipment / materials carried out by the science laboratory coordinator and science teacher through a needs analysis based on priority scale adjusted to available funds. Plans for the use of science laboratories in learning science are not detailed up to the daily schedule, but there is only a monthly schedule. (2) Arrangements for the use of natural science laboratories include: (a) procedure for the use of natural science laboratories, (b) preparation of natural science tools / materials, (c) storage of natural science tools / materials, (d) maintenance / maintenance of natural science laboratories carried out by the Natural Sciences laboratory coordinator set forth in writing in a laboratory order. (3) Supervision carried out by the principal is still limited to know the implementation of teaching and learning activities in the laboratory, not yet leading to the process of managing the science laboratory.
