The Keller Independent School District (ISD) Natatorium has closed indefinitely for mechanical repairs, and the facility’s future is expected to be addressed at a Board Meeting scheduled for Thursday night.
“Due to maintenance issues, the natatorium is closed until further notice,” the Keller ISD website says.
The pool hosts some 600-plus swimmers from the Lakeside Aquatic Club in addition to Keller High School, which swept the UIL 6A State Championships as recently as 2025, along with running local swim lessons.
Multiple Keller community Facebook groups have been flooded with comments about the matter over the last few days, with allegations that Keller ignored facility upgrades and required maintenance in the lead-up to this closure.
According to an anonymous post on the Keller ISD Community United Facebook page, an email was sent out informing community members of the closure.
“We received official written notification from Keller ISD that the Keller ISD Natatorium will be CLOSED indefinitely due to mechanical issues. We do not know how long this closure will be happening. We understand your frustration with the short notice closure. If you choose to contact the KISD Board or Superintendent, please do so respectfully. Professional communication is more effective and helps LAC maintain positive relationships with the district as we work together on future planning.”
In the Keller Texas Neighborly Group on Facebook, a post, which has more than 300 comments, reads:
“A failure on the part of Keller ISD, who were aware of the constant air quality and poor maintenance issues. They wasted money on the wrong parts or ignored needed repairs and now the bill is in the millions. Hundreds of athletes have been displaced, many of whom start college recruiting next month and have championship swim meets over the summer. The Keller council was also aware of the situation, and rather than look for ways to help support Keller swimmers, they added sprinklers and planted flowers between the lanes of Keller Parkway. This pool and the parents have been begging for help, and now hundreds of families are left in limbo. KISD Natatorium has accommodated state champions and runners-up for years. Several athletes swam at the Olympic Trials and have gone on to swim in college. This is a huge disappointment for our local swimmers and a direct result of KISD’s lack of action and planning.”
The agenda for tonight’s Board Meeting includes more than $2 million earmarked for pool filter replacements as part of the “Budget Amendments for Board Approval” section.
Heather Washington, the Keller ISD Board of Trustees Vice President, said in the comments of one of the Facebook posts that the District has already spent “hundreds of thousands of dollars” trying to address facility issues and that “current projections show that more than $9 million would be needed to bring the facility up to operational standards.”
Keller Mayor Armin Mizani was also engaging with community members in the Facebook group, saying they had not heard directly from the KISD and would reserve comment until the matter was addressed. He added: “If the safety concern is accurate, KISD taking precautions is the right step until the wellbeing of swimmers and families can be ensured. While KISD is a separate entity, the City of Keller remains ready to assist KISD as best we can as we have also done on other matters.”
Community members wishing to speak at the Board Meeting and voice their support for the facility can sign up here. The meeting is scheduled for Thursday, May 14, 2026, at 5 pm at The Education Center, located at 350 Keller Parkway, Keller.
SwimSwam has reached out to the KISD for comment.
