Bill > HB582

This bill amends the Public School Code of 1949 to further provide for fire, school security, and emergency evacuation drills in Pennsylvania schools. The key provisions include: requiring fire, school security, and emergency evacuation drills to be conducted at least monthly while school is in session and students are present; mandating principals or persons in charge to maintain detailed records of these drills, including the date, time, duration, and type of drill; and requiring the Department of Education to annually report on statewide compliance with these drill requirements to the state legislature and fire commissioner.
