Who Can Apply:
- Miss Laura was a performer, a teacher, a mentor, a second mom, and a strong woman who had a gift for making everyone who walked through her doors feel at home.
- Miss Laura’s studio was never just a place to take a class; it was a place to grow, to learn, and to discover a love and passion for dance that stayed with students for life.

Miss Laura was a trusted guide to her students, inspiring them, providing unconditional love, and empowering them to take control of their futures.
- This scholarship aims to honor the memory of Miss Laura by supporting students who have the heart and talent to grow, but not the means to pay their way.
