2005 House Bill 4460 ↩

Senate Roll Call 373: Passed

To require schools to perform two “lockdown drills” each year. Under current law, schools must conduct eight fire drills and two tornado drills each year. The bill would replace two of the fire drills with lockdown drills. Lockdown drills include establishing secure locations where students are confined, securing the premises, and other security measures as appropriate for emergencies such as the release of a hazardous material or the presence of an armed individual.
