The Harid Conservatory is a ballet training school for high-school age students. It was established in 1987 and is located in Boca Raton, Florida. It offers four-year curriculum includes ballet and related dance courses. Students are enrolled at an online school set up at the campus to complete their studies. HARID is recognized as a high school by the State of Florida and is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Dance.[1][2]

The school's founder was Fred Lieberman (1923–2008), who named it for his parents Harry and Ida.
