Okay, Mom and Dad, if you want the best opportunity for your child to excel and achieve their full potential, send them to Neely! My daughter is in the sixth-grade this year.

These children meet before school in order to participate. The strings start with third-graders and the band with fourth-graders, which is not standard for other schools in the district.
