International school in Japan please


International school in Japan please?
My granddaughter is in junior high and has always been interested in the Japanese culture. She is in love with it, and has decided to take the next step to attend a international school in Japan. We would like to find a good international school for her when she is in early high school and can live on campus. I do have a couple questions though: I am worried about the nights when she will need love (ex, crying and needs someone to turn to) is there a way she can call her family in America? Or is there a counselor she can go to? Also, when we pay for the school, will that cover the pay for food? I would like to say that we will not be with her. Is this possible for this to happen, or should we try a foreign exchange student program instead? Thanks

This link is the American school in Japan. It's 26,000 dollars a year plus entrance fees. It doesn't have accommodation though. http://community.asij.ac.jp/Page.aspx?pid=200 The only school with boarding in the North Island. http://www.his.ac.jp/index.html It's much cheaper (21,000 dollars per year) and has 'dorm parents'.
