The group “Échirolles, citoyenne écologique et solidaire” highlights the municipal efforts for a successful school year. Classrooms have been renovated, fans installed, and schoolyard greening reinforced. The goal is to provide more pleasant schools better adapted to climate change. The group also commends the dedication of education, after-school, maintenance, and central kitchen staff, who prepare around 1,600 daily meals prioritizing quality and local products.
The success of the Sports and Associations Forum is also emphasized, allowing residents to discover new activities and interact with volunteers. The group reaffirms its commitment to ensuring the necessary resources for national education and the well-being of children.
In response to recent events of violence and vandalism, particularly around the Marie-Curie high school and in the city center, the group “Rassemblement pour Échirolles” expresses its indignation. It calls on the Mayor of Échirolles and the President of Grenoble-Alpes Métropole to file complaints and demand compensation for damages suffered by the communities, applying the “casseur-payeur” (vandal-pays) principle.
The group advocates that perpetrators of identified vandalism must financially cover the damages caused, not the Échirollois taxpayers. It pledges to continue defending residents' safety and public heritage.
The group “Echirolles A'venir”, represented by Antar Labiod and Inès Leucci, supports high school students and teachers facing a lack of resources in public education. They denounce the insufficient replacement of teachers, overcrowded classrooms, and understaffing, consequences of a weakened public service.
The group considers the students' demands legitimate and strongly opposes images of repression. It calls for investment in schools, and for the recruitment and protection of educational staff, stating that a society that believes in its future provides its youth with the means to succeed.
