MONTE CASSINO SCHOOL
Founded in 1926 by the sisters of St. Joseph Monastery, Monte Cassino continues to educate Tulsa children with a commitment to Benedictine values and Catholic education in a student-centered atmosphere.
Having served the Tulsa community as a high school, a junior college and as its current pre-K-eighth grade configuration, Monte Cassino continues to look ahead and modify its curriculum to best serve its students and families. “We welcome students of all faiths and offer an excellent education rooted in faith and strong academics in a supportive environment,” says Sister Marie Therese Long, school president. “Along with the classic curriculum, we offer extensive enrichment, athletics and opportunities for unique learners.”
There are 26 after-school programs to choose from including art studio, robotics, music, STEM, athletics and more. Middle school students can take high school-level math and foreign language, including Latin, Spanish and French. Small class sizes meet the needs of diverse learners in a faith-filled, student- and family-focused environment. The school has attracted high-performing teachers who are given the opportunity, freedom and support to make classrooms challenging, but also interesting and fun. Professional development allows for faculty and staff to learn new practices to ensure students excel.
For nearly 100 years, Tulsa leaders across many industries have attended Monte Cassino. From aerospace, finance and energy to construction, philanthropy, real estate and tourism, Monte Cassino alumni have shaped Tulsa for generations and is poised to continue this legacy for many years to come.
Monte Cassino students, leadership and staff are dedicated to serving the greater Tulsa community through days of volunteerism, service projects, and food and diaper drives.
Monte Cassino will welcome Chris Burke as head of school this summer. Burke is only the third layperson to lead the school in its near century of education.
