The result revealed the following: First, Science teachers’ Scientific attitudes during Modular Distance Learning in terms of scientific behavior, scientific belief, and views toward Modular Distance Learning are positive. Second, teachers’ performances as administrator, teacher, and adviser during Modular Distance Learning are high. It means that Science teachers performed their task responsibly. Third, secondary public schools’ performances during Modular Distance Learning are above average. This means that Science teachers frequently agree that school’s objective is attained. Fourth, there is a significant relationship between science teachers’ scientific attitudes in terms of views toward Modular Distance Learning and schools’ operational performance. Fifth, there is a significant relationship between science teachers’ performances as administrator and teacher and schools’ economic and operational performances.
