Safety Tips:

Eureka Police Department’s press release:

Eureka City Schools is back in session next Monday, August 25th. The Eureka Police Department would like to remind drivers to be aware of students walking and biking to school and to be more careful around congested school zones. 

Drivers should plan their route ahead of time and leave early in case of heavy traffic. Follow school drop off zone rules and exercise caution in these areas. Motorists traveling in either direction must stop for school busses with flashing red lights. 

Children are the least predictable pedestrians and are difficult to see. Follow the rules of the road and help us make this school year safe for all.
