The protests, which began a week ago, are calling for better school equipment and learning conditions. Over 200 high schools in the Paris area will remain closed as a precaution, and several major education unions are supporting the protests, with some calling for strikes. The protests have turned violent, with over 5,000 arrests made and 65 police officers injured since the protests began, and damage to school buildings and public spaces estimated at several million euros.",
