Still have one in the hospital-sounds like an old time submarine dive alarm. It goes off and then there is what seems like a 10 second pause before they announce where the “Code Blue” is. I think the delay is to make sure people are paying attention.
For the last several years I was Fire Marshall for my area at work. There were never enough drills to stop the adrenalin from maxing out when that bell went off!

We had a fire drill buzzer next to our homeroom and that was the worst ever.

I agree with Hag5000.
In elementary school, it was more like a medium-pitched horn sound, not a buzzer. There were bells, alarm-like bells, outside.
In junior high (“middle school” sounds pukey), it was all bells.
But the fire drill buzzer made you jump out of your skin.
