Xena - 12/31/2022

There are some great teachers there that care about the students and some teachers who are there for a paycheck. Overall they have a great facility, they are constantly improving and hopefully in the future it gets better. They don't have an actual cafeteria, which I think they should incorporate in the future because just feeding of the vending machine is not always the best choice.
