In August, 2007, the Settlement Workers in Schools(SWIS) program sponsored a pilot project to prepare newly arrived youth for entry to eight(8) high schools in Ontario. Called Newcomer Orientation Week or NOW, this intensive orientation initiative was piloted in six(6) high schools in Toronto, one(1) in Peel Region and one(1) in Hamilton. The NOW program was strategically positioned to occur just prior to the beginning of the school year. In NOW, former newcomer students are trained to lead the activities with the newly arrived students. The overall concept of NOW is that newcomer youth begin to feel more comfortable in the school setting and, if they run into difficulties, know how to get support-from PLs, teachers and/or SWIS workers. The overall goal of NOW is : To give newcomer youth a head start in their new school by familiarizing them with the school building and routines, linking them to students already attending the school, and orienting them to sources of help as well as the “culture” of the Ontario educational system. 1, record 3, English, - Newcomer%20Orientation%20Week

En 2007, le projet SONA a été mis à l’essai dans huit écoles secondaires de l’Ontario pour fournir une orientation aux élèves du secondaire nouvellement arrivés au Canada dès leur arrivée au pays. La Semaine d’orientation des nouveaux arrivants (SONA) permet de présenter l’école et la collectivité aux élèves qui sont des nouveaux arrivants pendant la dernière semaine d’août avant la rentrée des classes. Cette séance est présentée par des jeunes qui ont été des nouveaux arrivants (des « peer leaders ») et animée par les TEE (Travailleurs de l'établissement dans les écoles) et les enseignants. Le programme SONA a été élargi en 2008 et est maintenant offert à 40 écoles. 1, record 3, French, - Semaine%20d%27orientation%20des%20nouveaux%20arrivants
