Will little neon tetras school will celestial pearl danio's? because mine are in my 20 gallon community tank. I was wondering if this was normal, they are both the same size.
 
No, they won't. Being community fish, they might hang out peacefully together, but they won't shoal or school in a species-like manner. You'll need 6 of each if possible.
 
I have 5 of each and they seem to be schooling together
In the picture the other neons and celestials were down below out of sight

If you're seeing them enjoying each others' company, that's a great sign.
