Yes, all Brooklyn LAB students are required to wear school uniforms so that students can focus on learning, and dressing for success is an essential part of our culture. However, if a family can't afford a uniform, we have a support fund to assist.

You can apply to Brooklyn Laboratory Charter Schools in the calendar year your child turns 11. (In other words, your child must turn 11 years old by December 31 of the year they are admitted to 6th grade.)

All Brooklyn LAB families are automatically given a seat for the following school year. But to confirm placement, families must complete the Intent to Return form. School staff will reach out with instructions before the re-enrollment period begins.
