Our school doesn’t involve parents in the drills but I am just thinking of whether to avoid these types of clothing items?
Children attend school during the daytime. So no.
Isn’t the core part of these drills to cut off lights to make the room dark?
No. That's not even part of the drill.
Getting your snowflake to sit still quietly is the core part. You kid could wear shoes with sparklers for all they care.

It’s still daylight, hun. How dark do you think they are? Classrooms have windows.

Oh no! I never thought about that, OP, but you're entirely correct. I know the probability is tiny that this would ever be an issue... but this is what lax gun laws do. They don't just kill thousands of people every year; they create an atmosphere of fear across the nation.
You could keep the glowy stuff for weekends.

OP, I've had these thoughts too - not about the drill, but about whether this could make it harder for ny kid to hide. I ultimately decided not to deprive my kid of a joy on this basis.
But you're not crazy to think about it. I read an interview where some kids had the sane question.

Vote to ban assault weapons and increase waiting times to buy guns. Same day gun sales should not exist.
Because nobody ever bought a gun unlawfully, stole one, or had one already. Pointless “solution.”

Our school doesn’t allow light-up shoes period. I’m sure because they’re distracting, not specifically about lockdown drills. I would save light-up shoes and wheelies for the weekend.

Asking teachers for the most part. Do these distractions cause issues with keeping the children hidden etc? I’m back to school shopping and this popped into my mind with the sketchers light ups and a pair of vans glow in the dark sneakers.
