Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes. The Laird Academy accepts new students at five enrollment windows throughout the academic year — in August, October, November, January, and March. Between windows, interested families are added to the waitlist and contacted directly when the next window opens.

  • Enrollment at The Laird Academy is a commitment to the academic year. We ask families to treat it as such — the same way they would treat a school semester commitment.

    To withdraw from the program, 30 days written notice is required before the next billing date. Notice submitted after the billing date will result in one final month's charge before withdrawal is processed.

    Families who paid in full and withdraw after the 30-day satisfaction window are eligible for a prorated refund of unused months.

    New families receive a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If the program is genuinely not the right fit within the first 30 days, a full refund of unused time is issued.

    We understand that life changes. Unexpected moves, family circumstances, and genuine mismatches do happen. We handle every withdrawal conversation with care and without pressure.

  • All new students begin as Ensemble (1st through 5th grade) or Rising Stars (TK and Kindergarten). This is where every Laird dancer begins.

    Soloist and Principal tiers are for continuing dancers who have been attending Ensemble group classes. The teacher observes each student throughout the year and issues promotions based on readiness. A Soloist promotion typically occurs after one to two semesters. Principal is by invitation only.
