Foreign Language Program Articulation: Building Bridges from ...... Successful ***articulation*** between elementary and secondary schools occurs ... WHAT IS FOREIGN LANGUAGE PROGRAM ARTICULATION?
For the educational practitioner, articulation is the process of providing a smooth and logical transition from an elementary to a secondary program and ensuring continuity from one FLES classroom to another. This kind of academic sequencing provides opportunities for those students with both the interest and ability to continue their elementary school language study at the secondary level. Articulation can be viewed from two perspectives: horizontal and vertical.

I decided to use "buddy system" but "articulation" is also correct. It was just too formal for the context.

Explanation:
French school practices. When the school year begins, students who go from primary school into secondary school are accompanied by secondary school students, who show them the schoolrooms, the labs, library, facilities, the dormitories if any, etc. so that they will know their way around. It is a welcoming activity.
