from the North York Board of Education (which it was closed in 1986) along with half of 827 students from St. Basil-the-Great housed in 17 portables on the Weston Road site.

With smaller school communities, many move to larger but physical buildings such as McGuigan, which previously had portables on site before added an annex in 2006.

For instance at first, the building served as the temporary home of Immaculate Conception Catholic School from 2003-2005 upon construction of the new, replacement campus on Comay Road.

Today the facility hosts a number of surplus portable classrooms for schools west of Yonge Street.

Regina Pacis is situated in the northwest quadrant of Downsview in North York with a mixed residential, commercial and industrial neighbourhood.
