St. Johnsbury Academy Jeju opened on Jeju Island, South Korea, in 2017 as part of a Global Education City of companion boarding schools from the United States, Britain, and Canada. It was conceived on the model of St. Johnsbury Academy in Vermont, with the same mission, the Three Promises, and the Hilltopper identity. The Jeju campus serves students from kindergarten through grade 12 and operates independently, while maintaining ties to its Vermont counterpart. The sister-school relationship with St. Johnsbury Academy in Vermont includes collaboration to expand exchange programs.

The campus maintains ongoing collaboration with St. Johnsbury Academy in Vermont, including student exchanges.
