IMPORTANT UPDATES FOR ALL BAYSIDE PARTICIPANTS, STAFF AND FAMILY MEMBERS:
As a result of the recent federal and state COVID Guideline changes, Bayside will slowly begin to relax our agency protocols.

Therefore, our protocol changes will be taken in small steps and are subject to change.

- When outdoors, if social distancing of 3 feet can be ensured, staff and participants can remove their masks.

Please contact the main office if you did not receive a form requesting full time attendance. Classes will continue to change and individuals will continue to have lunch and break in the classroom.
