East High School is located off of Northern Lights Blvd close to Elmendorf Air Force base. I did not like the area surrounding East High School as its not the best area of town. The school is older and in need of updates. I wasn't very happy with the teaching staff or education bar. I would recommend a better high school such as Service High School.
