History
It was founded in 1926 by the Benedictine Sisters as a girls' school and junior college. The junior college remained in operation until 1945. In the early 1960s, Monte Cassino terminated its boarding school, and its residence hall became the new home for the sisters of the St. Joseph Monastery.
The girls' high school continued until 1986. In that year, Monte Cassino closed its high school, added a preschool, and adopted co-education for its middle school. At the same time, the neighboring Catholic boys' school, Cascia Hall Preparatory School, began admitting girls in middle school and high school, effectively absorbing Monte Cassino's role as a girls' high school. (The two schools had shared some classes in previous years.)
