The clarinet fingering is correct. If you have the big urge, then find a BBb contrabass clarinet, if the school has one.
The Eb contra alto clarinet has a concert pitch range down to GGb, with one or two models with an extension range down to EEb. If you have a contrabass, then you can go down to DDb usually, with some instruments having an extension range to CCC or BBBb.
