Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are pleased to share that the HVAC repairs at Near Southside CDC have been fully resolved. The building is now back to a safe and comfortable temperature, and we are ready to welcome children back.

Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and understanding throughout this unexpected closure. We truly appreciate your support as we worked to ensure a safe environment for our children and staff.

We look forward to seeing everyone on Monday!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We want to provide an important update regarding the ongoing HVAC issues at Near Southside CDC.

Unfortunately, the contractor has been unable to source the necessary control panel quickly enough, which means repairs will not be completed in time for us to safely reopen. Given this situation and the pending cooler temperatures expected both tonight and tomorrow, Near Southside CDC will be closed for the remainder of the week (Thursday and Friday).

For families who did not utilize care at our Keller CDC location during this time, we will prorate tuition accordingly.

We understand how disruptive this may be and sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding. Our priority continues to be the safety and comfort of our children and staff. We will continue to provide updates as soon as we have more information about repairs and reopening.

Thank you for your support during this unexpected situation.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We want to provide an important update regarding the temporary closure of the Clayton Child Development Center at Near Southside.

Unfortunately, we will need to remain closed as there has been some difficulty with the delivery and installation of the HVAC parts. Due to the current conditions inside the center, ongoing repair work, and the forecasted temperatures over the next few days, it is not safe or a comfortable situation for us to reopen at this time. The estimated timeframe for delivery and installation of the necessary parts is 3–5 business days. We will keep you informed every day on the status of repairs.

As an option, we are offering alternative care at our Keller ISD Child Development Center, located at 10310 N. Riverside Dr.. If you would like to take advantage of this option, please contact either Raina Orr at rorr@claytonyouth.org or Dawn Carr at dcarr@claytonyouth.org so that arrangements can be made. Please note that spaces are limited and will be assigned based on the order in which families reach out.

Additionally, please note that for our full-time children, if the closure extends beyond three days, we will prorate tuition accordingly.

We understand how challenging unexpected closures can be and sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all children and staff.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We want to inform you that the HVAC system at our Clayton Child Development Center at Near Southside is currently down, leaving us without heat. With the cold temperatures, we have closed the center for the day (12/2/25) to ensure the safety and comfort of our children and staff.

The necessary parts are on the way, and we anticipate having the system repaired so we can resume normal operations on Wednesday, December 3, 2025.

We sincerely apologize for this unforeseen circumstance and understand the inconvenience it may cause. Our priority is to maintain a safe and comfortable environment for everyone, and we appreciate your understanding and flexibility.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
