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 a four-year curriculum that 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.

The school's founder was Fred Lieberman (1923–2008), who named it for his parents Harry and Ida. Although Lieberman funded the program's annual operating costs, he remained an anonymous benefactor during his lifetime, known only as "the Donor" to HARID students, employees, and supporters. He also established an endowment fund to continue funding the school after his death.
