Baltimore County Public Schools implements a State Regulation (COMAR 13A.04.05), which requires all local school systems to infuse Education That Is Multicultural into instruction, curriculum, staff development, instructional resources, and school climate.

Education That is Multicultural is defined as “a continuous, integrated, multidisciplinary process for educating all students about diversity and commonality. Diversity factors include, but are not limited to, race, ethnicity, region, religion, gender, language, socioeconomic status, age, and individuals with disabilities. Education That is Multicultural prepares students to live, interact, and work creatively in an interdependent global society by focusing on mutual appreciation and respect. It is a process which is complemented by community and parent involvement in support of multicultural initiatives.”
