In March 2016, TCAPS decided to close Bertha Vos International School and Interlochen Elementary. Officials almost closed, but an unknown donor has pledged to pay about $100,000 dollars to keep Old Mission open. In May 2016, The nearby Kingsley Area Schools decided to look into owning the school.
For both 2015 and 2016 the TCAPS Japanese exchange program, in which TCAPS students exchange with Japanese ones for one week, has been completely paid for by an anonymous donor.
