Social and emotional learning (SEL) at St Johnsbury Academy Jeju is supported through the Middle School Counseling Program, which provides social, emotional, and academic support via whole‑class lessons, one‑on‑one work, and small groups, and is complemented by an advisory system that gives students a faculty mentor and peer network; this counseling focus aligns with the school's Three Promises.
SEN provision is delivered through EAL, Learning Support, and Social‑Emotional Counseling; there is no dedicated SEN department described. EAL includes a full‑time EAL teacher per PreK–5 with a push‑in model and English Acceleration, and Learning Support and ES social‑emotional counseling are listed among Elementary staff.
The Elementary EAL Program provides at least one full‑time EAL teacher for each PreK–5 grade, uses a push‑in model with co‑planning and in‑class or small‑group support, and includes an English Acceleration option after school for higher‑need learners.
Mental wellbeing is supported by the Middle School Counseling Program (social‑emotional support through class lessons, individual and group work) and Elementary social‑emotional counselors; the Medical Center also provides 24/7 on‑site health care and emergency support for student wellbeing.
Safeguarding is aligned with the Korean Child Welfare Act and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child; concerns are reported immediately to a Designated Safeguarding Lead or Officers (with anonymous reporting), safeguarding training is mandatory for all staff, and a dedicated safeguarding team coordinates policies and responses.
