HB 5662 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING MONTHLY CRISIS RESPONSE DRILLS.

HB 5662 requires every public school in the state to conduct crisis response drills (such as active shooter or fire drills) once each month. This bill directly affects all public schools and their staff, mandating regular practice for emergency situations. The key provision amends existing law to replace less frequent drill requirements with a strict monthly schedule. The stated purpose is to ensure schools maintain consistent preparedness for potential crises through regular, repeated practice.
