The results of this study explain that students at the research site are entirely uniform, The implementation of multicultural education is focused on training students to accept and appreciate differences such as skin color, hair color, learning ability, and other differences encountered in the school. The difference encountered is in the parents of students whose community organizations are different from where the children go to school. Researchers concluded that these schools have instilled the values of multicultural education, although its implementation was not yet complete. Students while attending the school are required to follow the school's values even though they have different family backgrounds. This is because every educational institution must carry out its vision and mission according to the organization of its community.
