Brooklyn Latin is unique in that it is the only specialized high school with a dress code. All boys wear khaki pants, white shirts and ties; girls may wear either skirts or khaki pants with white shirts. Amendments to the uniform are only allowed for medical or religious reasons.

Famous quotes containing the words dress and/or code:
“... too much attention is paid to dress by those who have neither the excuse of ample means nor of social claims.... The injury done by this state of things to the morals and the manners of our lower classes is incalculable.”
—Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
“Hollywood keeps before its child audiences a string of glorified young heroes, everyone of whom is an unhesitating and violent Anarchist. His one answer to everything that annoys him or disparages his country or his parents or his young lady or his personal code of manly conduct is to give the offender a “sock” in the jaw.... My observation leads me to believe that it is not the virtuous people who are good at socking jaws.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
