Principal’s Message
Greetings!
On behalf of the staff of Monsignor Haller Catholic Elementary School, we would like to welcome those families who are new to our school community and those families who have children previously enrolled at our school. We consider it a privilege to educate your child(ren) within a faith-based environment.
Our wonderful school community consists of many important members: our students, their parents/guardians and families, Blessed Sacrament Parish, and our staff. It is important that all members work together for the benefit of our cherished children so they can succeed and grow academically, spiritually, physically, and socially.
We are very fortunate to work with the staff of Blessed Sacrament Parish. These relationships allow our students the opportunity to connect directly with the church and our faith. We are looking forward to working with our school / parish team to support students in realizing their full potential to transform God’s world.
The staff members of this school are extremely dedicated and caring professionals. We are confident that they will provide the ultimate learning and living environment for our students. We feel fortunate to be working with each of our team members!
Creating a safe and accepting school, improving student learning and achievement, and fostering a healthy school community are the top priorities of the staff at Monsignor Haller Catholic Elementary School. Your support as parents is integral to your child(ren)’s academic, social and spiritual development. We look forward to an exciting year enriching our partnership with the church, the home and the community.
If you have any questions and/or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at school.
Thank you for being an active participant and partner in your child’s education!
Sincerely,
Gary Litschgy and Pamela Baille

Catholic School Advisory Council
Welcome to our Catholic School Advisory Council!
The education of our children is a partnership, working together to build a strong school community. Welcome, we’re glad you’re here.
What is the Role of the Catholic School Advisory Council?
A school council is an advisory body that functions within the parameters of Ministry of Education and Board policy. School councils provide an opportunity and the means to advise the principal and the Board on any matter on the improvement of pupil achievement and to enhance the accountability of the education system to parents/guardians. The ultimate responsibility for the administration and management of the day-to-day operation of the school rests with the principal.
A school council is an important venue for the various stakeholders in education to work in partnership. Its role, in collaboration with the principal, staff, and the community, is to help set the priorities of the school and to enhance learning opportunities, through various activities, for the benefit of our children/students.
What a Catholic School Advisory Council is not
A school council is not a place to pursue your own agenda or advocate for your own child. Individual issues should be pursued through the classroom teacher and/or principal.

Land Acknowledgement
The schools in the Waterloo Catholic District School Board are situated on the Haldimand tract of land that is the traditional home of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe and Chonnonton People. We acknowledge the enduring presence and deep traditional knowledge, laws and philosophies of the Indigenous Peoples with whom we share this land today.
We seek a new relationship with the Original People of this land, one based on honour and deep respect. We are grateful for the opportunity to learn here and reaffirm our collective commitment to make the promise and the challenge of Truth and Reconciliation real in our community.
Parish
Our Catholic Faith is taught, reinforced and celebrated in our school, homes and parish. We are so fortunate to have an excellent relationship with our local parish.
