ACADEMICS
We are a community of learners who strive to create an emotionally safe and engaging environment while delivering high-quality English language instruction with an American standards-based curriculum.
We’re now eleven years into our experiment and incredibly proud of the outcome.
The Elementary School is a learning community that encourages students to work together, develop compassion, and to actively contribute. Our students are empowered to work and support each other through play and academics, while maintaining positive behavior. Learning within an international community, our students also build the social skills and relationships that are necessary in an ever-changing world.
Middle school is the ideal opportunity for young adolescents to explore who they are and how they fit into the world. Through the iterative process, students will come to an understanding of who they are as learners, what they’re passionate about and ultimately how they will contribute to a better tomorrow
Synergetic collaboration and creativity are hallmarks of our High School. Transformative thinking and the ability to thrive in challenging circumstances will distinguish KISJ graduates.
Our dorm staff truly love working with students and are committed to building a community where everyone feels happy, safe, and included. It’s important to us that dorm students have opportunities throughout the year to acquire new interests and skills, pursue their passions, and connect with people from different cultural backgrounds. Life is great in the dorms
KISJ has a team of dedicated ELL specialists who collaborate with other teachers to co-plan, co-teach, co-assess, and co-reflect in order to support the needs of our language learners across all domains of language (listening, speaking, reading, and writing).

𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀: Borneo’s Ecosystems 🌍 KISJ students from AP Chemistry, AP Environmental Science, AP Biology, and Marine Science traveled to Borneo for an immersive, hands-on learning experience. They explored tropical rainforests and marine ecosystems, observing orangutans and crocodiles in their natural habitats and engaging in conservation projects like replanting trees in the 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲. This unique opportunity allowed students to apply their knowledge in 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥-𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐬, deepening their understanding of environmental science. Beyond academics, they demonstrated flexibility by adapting to the challenges of tropical living and built connections with local communities through service and cultural exchange. By actively engaging in environmental stewardship and working alongside peers, students enriched their academic knowledge while also developing key skills for global citizenship. #KISJ #ClassroomWithoutWalls #BorneoExploration #FlexibleLearners #EngagedStudents #EnvironmentalStewardship #kisjeju #kisjcommunity #kisjejucampus #kis제주 #internationalschool #gec #koreainternationalschooljejucampus
🇰🇷Celebrating Hangeul Day🇰🇷 October 9th marks a significant chapter in Korea’s history - National Language Day. It’s a day to celebrate the birth of Korea’s traditional language, which is ‘Hangeul’ (한글). 𝗛𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘂𝗹 (한글) was created and designed by Sejong the Great (세종대왕) to help and encourage his people to be educated and more connected with one another. At KISJ, we honor this legacy by fostering a community rooted in respect, understanding, and a shared commitment in progress within Korean and Korean Social Studies classes. #kisj #kisjeju #koreaninternationalschooljejucampus #kisjdragons #gec #한글날 #HangeulDay #KoreanCulture #KingSejong #KoreanAlphabet 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘠𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘗𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴. 📸 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘴 𝘣𝘺 𝘓.
