[quote=Anonymous]My child’s best friend had a panic attack during a lockdown drill. Teachers do the best they can, but the kids talk to each other about why they are practicing hiding. I also learned in a school drill planning session that it has been years since anyone died in a fire in a building with sprinklers. So given the respective mortality rates maybe we needed to increase lockdown drills and decrease the other safety procedure drills. Our local police wanted to shoot blanks in the hall so teachers could learn the sound of gunshots. We managed to talk them out of that while students are in the building but they may revisit in the summer. It was the most horrifying meeting I have attended.[/quote]
