Presenting our 2026-2027 Dance for Maggie Scholarship recipient, Molly Dean!

Maggie was a Stage Door Dancer who loved dancing and being at the studio. Maggie always brought light, love, and laughter into our studio and into the lives of so many!

To honor Maggie and all the goodness she brought to this world and our studio, Stage Door Dance Academy created a scholarship in Maggie’s name, Dance for Maggie. This scholarship includes one year of free dance tuition with the honor to “Dance for Maggie.”

Our faculty nominated a dancer who carries all the same qualities Maggie did. Maggie was kind, friendly, fun, imaginative, brave, cheerful, energetic, spirited, and she had a deep love for her family, friends, and dance.

Presenting the scholarship with Ms. Kate is Maggie’s Mom, Erin DeVries.

We love you, Maggie! You are forever in our hearts!

Presenting our Season 35 Diane Courtright Memorial Scholarship recipient, Addison Lyons!

The Diane Courtright Memorial Scholarship is awarded to one Stage Door Dance Academy dancer nominated by the faculty & staff. The recipient is someone who carries the same qualities as Diane: honesty, compassion, loyalty, integrity and a deep love of life and dance. Addison will receive her tuition free of charge for Season 35. This scholarship was made possible by the heartfelt wishes of Diane’s husband, Ken, and through the generosity of those who have donated to this scholarship fund in honor and remembrance of Diane.

Presenting the scholarship with Ms. Debbie is Diane’s Grandaughter, Kaley Courtright.
