Brake screeching

Since you say it's just the first couple of stops it could simply be rust on the rotors from sitting.

The screech is actually a high frequency vibration from the rotor surface being polished smooth, like running your finger around a wine glass.

I would just lube up the back of the pads and run them through a re-bedding process, should eliminate 90% of the noise.
