On Monday, more than 1,400 people, mostly high school students, gathered in front of seven schools in the towns of Nîmes, Alès, and Milhaud in the Gard department of southern France. Despite the protests, classes continued in person at all schools in the area. Police and gendarmes were deployed to manage the gatherings and ensure the safety of the schools. Some incidents occurred, including attempts to block access to schools and acts of vandalism. Law enforcement, with the help of firefighters, intervened to stop these actions. Ten individuals were detained during the day, and one employee of the National Education system was slightly injured after being struck by a projectile. The prefect of the Gard, Fabienne Decottignies, expressed support for the injured employee and condemned any form of violence. As the day of mobilization ended, the regional representative of the state called for calm, responsibility, and dialogue. Later that evening, the rector of the Montpellier academy, Carole Drucker-Godard, visited the Institut Emmanuel d'Alzon in Nîmes, accompanied by Christophe Mauny, the academic director of the National Education services (DASEN) for the Gard department. They assessed the damage at the school and provided support to the staff. The rector and DASEN representative met with teachers to discuss the events of the day and the challenges they faced. The Institut Emmanuel d'Alzon noted that the visit by these officials was particularly meaningful in the current situation and thanked them for their support. This visit took place after more than 1,400 people, mainly high school students, mobilized in front of seven schools in Nîmes, Alès, and Milhaud. The day of mobilization was marked by several incidents, including ten arrests and the injury of a National Education employee. The protests took place in the context of broader discussions about education policies and student concerns. While the demonstrations were large, classes continued in most schools, and authorities emphasized the need for peaceful dialogue. The involvement of local education officials highlighted the importance of maintaining stability and support for school staff and students during such events. The response from local authorities and education officials reflected an effort to balance the right to protest with the need to protect school environments. The visits by the rector and DASEN representative underscored the commitment to addressing the concerns of teachers and students while ensuring the safety and continuity of educational activities. As the situation unfolds, the emphasis remains on fostering communication and finding solutions through dialogue.
