Each of our “NEAT LITTLES”, “NEAT KIDZ”, “NEAT JUNIORS” & “NEAT LEADERS” classes takes our kids on a journey through the entire process of putting on a play!
Our 4 Acting Class Categories are based mostly on grade level and named as follows:
“NEAT LITTLES” – Grades K-2
“NEAT KIDZ” – Grades *2-6
“NEAT JUNIORS” – Grades *6-9
“NEAT LEADERS” – Grades *9-12
*Our 2nd Graders will typically stay in our NEAT LITTLES Class, but we can move them up if we all believe they are ready. Our 6th graders, unless it is their first year at NEAT, have the choice if they want to be in NEAT KIDZ or NEAT JUNIORS. *Our 9th Graders also have a choice, unless, like mentioned before, they are just starting at NEAT, as to whether they want to be in NEAT JUNIORS or NEAT LEADERS. Other exceptions can be made if the circumstances dictate them. If you feel that this might apply to your child, please email us at urneat2014@gmail.com or feel free to text us at (516) 404-2367 and we will contact you to discuss this in further detail.

This year, will will be asking our older and more experienced NEAT Leaders to work with our NEAT LITTLES, KIDZ, and JUNIORS to help prepare them for their upcoming Musical Productions. We will also be asking them if they would like to volunteer to help us Back Stage with all three of these younger groups during the evenings of their productions! We have now been doing this for the past couple of years and ALL OUR NEAT KIDS, YOUNGER AND OLDER, LOVE THE EXPERIENCE! ❤️
