This photograph shows our guests, their guides, and us (Dana Lyles, Jack Pickering, and Assistant Principal Robert Hirsch) in our media center. Here's a classroom scene.  The student guide at far right is in medieval costume.  By happy coincidence, our guests visited the day of our 7th grade Renaissance Fair.
We were treated to a demonstration of an ancient Kendo sword ceremony by  the classroom teacher  of our partner school, Mito-Ishikawa Junior High School. The sword ceremony thrilled students and visitors at the Renaissance Fair!
Here we are at dinner, just before departure time for our friends. We'll miss our new friends!
