14 Arrandale Avenue, Great Neck, NY, USA

A social skills class for children, teens and young adults of all abilities, hosted through the Great Neck Park District.

Instruction happens in small groups, and there's a game built into every session so practice happens while people are actually enjoying themselves.
$69.99 per class.
