MEI Middle Grade 8 Renaissance Fair was filled with color, songs, great food, and displays -- all in a Renaissance theme! Students assumed roles from King and Queen, to lowly Serfs. Costumes were authentic and very detailed with enthusiastic participation by everyone. A big thanks to all the parents who joined in to make this experience such a great success.
