Is going from a Rye neck school district to Harrison school district a big deal? I know that Rye Neck is much smaller.

They are both great school districts. The big difference is that Harrison is a much much bigger school district.
The great selling point for Harrison High is the Harrison High IB Program.

We seriously considered Harrison when choosing a town to move to. In particular, we really liked Sunny Ridge but Sterling Ridge was also on our list.
Another advantage of Harrison is generally lower taxes, especially if you buy a house that is under-assessed (Harrison doesn't reassess taxes upon sale).
