School Lunch and Challah Ordering Information
| |
|
Beginning this school year, we will have an in-house catering company that will be providing lunches. The most exciting things is that even if your child doesn't like the entree, there are loads of regular items offered every day. For one price each day, students can chose whatever and how much they want.
The lunches are available to all students; however, ECC students need to be in attendance during the lunch period to be able to participate in this program.
In addition, you will have the opportunity to order challahs and challah rolls for your Shabbat table delivered from a challah bakery in Monsey, New York.
Information regarding the lunch program and procedures for ordering lunches and challahs/challah rolls can be found here. Please read it! The deadline for ordering September lunches and 1st session challah/challah rolls has been extended to September 1, so do it NOW.
If you have any questions about the lunch or challah program, please call the school office.

Locker Setup for Middle School Students
| |
|
6th - 8th grade students may come to school on Thursday, September 3, from 1:00-3:00 or Friday, September 4, from 12:00-2:00 to get their new locker assignments and combinations and to set up their lockers. This is the ONLY time before school starts that students may come in. The locks have not yet been installed in the lockers and, since we're not sure when they will be installed, no other advance dates will be available.
