Interesting philosophical question :)

Yes. Fire drills are good. In my middle school, they did fire drills often before the weather got cold and once, the fire bell rang and my whole cheered and some jumped our of their seats and the teacher had the WTF face on. Fire drills are good because we get to spend 10 minutes of the period going outside. We're not idiots. We know its a drill. Unless we smell smoke or the announcements say it isn't a drill, the fire bell doesn't tell us its a fire, it tells us that we can relax for a few minutes.

Which is why its bad for the school's side. The drills take up class time and the we love it.
