Pursuant to Life Safety Code and Official Code of Georgia Annotated, each time your school conducts a fire drill, this report is to be filed with the Office of Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner John W. Oxendine.

There shall be at least one fire exit drill each month that school is in session, the first one to be within the first 10 days classes begin.

Practice drills may be held during inclement weather. Such drills may also be held at regular dismissal time, when the pupils are fully clothed, by using the exit drill alarm system.

This type of drill would not necessitate a return to a classroom signal. Drills shall be executed at different hours of the day. Fire drills shall be an exercise of school management. Running shall be prohibited. Principals are responsible for inspecting exits, panic hardware, exit lights, fire alarm systems, and other safety features daily to ensure their in-service condition. The searching of toilets or other rooms shall be the responsibility of the teachers or other assigned staff members.
