In 2012, the school hosted a fundraiser with The Montreal Jubilation Gospel Choir. The school was slated with closure on the 30 June 2016. However, community groups joined together to convince Lester B Pearson school board to change this decision. On the 26 January 2016 the school won a reprieve to stay open for an extra 12 months. In June 2016 the decision was completely overturned and in September 2016 the school started the school year knowing it was safe from closure.

In the anecdote, Kowalewski asks his classmates if they "are ready" for an unspecified event.
