Indonesia has a multicultural society. This society as social capital strengthens the nation's culture; and at the same time will be a threat of division. Multicultural education becomes an important dimension to the integrity of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia (NKRI). School education has an important dimension in implementing multicultural education. The substance of this paper examines the Teachers' Construction on the Implementation Strategy of Multicultural Education in Schools. Use exploratory and questionnaire design as a data collection technique. This research was conducted on 30 Citizenship Education teachers in Surabaya. The data analysis technique used is descriptive statistical techniques with percentage techniques. The results of this study indicate there are five teacher strategies in implementing multicultural education; namely: (1) Multicultural Education must be carried out in Learning; (2) Teaching Materials and Learning Media as a means of understanding multicultural concepts; (3) Student Worksheets (LKPD) as a medium for implementing multicultural attitudes; and; (4) The discussion method is a means of assessing students' competence about multicultural attitudes. Finally this paper concludes that the most appropriate implementation of multicultural education is through learning. Therefore it is suggested that increasing teacher competency in integrating multicultural values in learning becomes an important dimension.
