What is going on at EBT?

NYC students can pick up 3 free meals daily from city-wide "grab and go" sites. A complete list of these sites can be found here.

Teachers are reaching out to students with instructions on how we will conduct classes while schools are closed. Most classes will have a direct instruction component via Zoom.us, which is a free online meeting platform. Students will go online, following the updated period schedule posted below. More detailed information will be sent from students' teachers, either via Jupitergrades or ebtbrooklyn.com email.

If you were not able to pick up a lap top at the Grand Street Campus, please go to the DOE's Remote Learning Device Request page, to request a digital device.

If you DO NOT have Internet access at home, please contact Spectrum at 844-488-8395 or 844-488-8398 to obtain FREE Internet Service.

In May, 2018, EBT was approved by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IB) to offer the IB Diploma Programme. According to the IB web site, students in this internationally recognized program will:

• be encouraged to think independently and drive their own learning
• take part in programs of education that can lead them to some of the highest ranking universities around the world
• become more culturally aware, through the development of a second language
• be able to engage with people in an increasingly globalized, rapidly changing world.
