Casa Montessori

About Casa Montessori

Casa Montessori, Inc., a California corporation, was founded in 1971, by Mrs. Sakura Long with the intent of building an excellent educational institution applying the American Montessori approach to learning.Prior to founding Casa Montessori, Mrs. Long had served as Principal of Montessori Schools, Inc. - the very first Montessori school on the West Coast! When Montessori Schools, Inc. dissolved, Mrs. Long was determined to find a home for the 150+ students that had been attending Montessori Schools, Inc. She was able to get a loan to build a school on Lassen Street in Northridge - our current school location. With a 14% interest rate on the loan, the early years were a financial struggle but her dedication to her students, and her conviction in the superiority and success of Montessori teaching methods fed her passion to not just survive but, thrive.
