Dress Code
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:
“At the milliners, the ladies we met were so much dressed, that I should rather have imagined they were making visits than purchases. But what diverted me most was, that we were more frequently served by men than by women; and such men! so finical, so affected! they seemed to understand every part of a woman’s dress better than we do ourselves; and they recommended caps and ribbons with an air of so much importance, that I wished to ask them how long they had left off wearing them.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
“Motion or change, and identity or rest, are the first and second secrets of nature: Motion and Rest. The whole code of her laws may be written on the thumbnail, or the signet of a ring.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
