This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
11/19/2024
The best part of West Anchorage High School was the ability to connect with other students. The concern falls upon the administrators, who have lacked in preparing students for college until the past year.
11/14/2024
The thing I love about West is the amount of diversity we have flowing through the hallways. Wherever you go, you are able to see so many different cultures and people together. I myself am in many clubs in West, including Key Club, and am a key part of our Spanish club. West is just the place you're able to find yourself and find a club or after-school activity that you're able to fit into. One of the best parts of West has to be our Fine Arts Program, being the best in the state. In contrast, the lesser part of West I feel is the constant problems we have occurring with vaping and other things happening in our bathrooms.
9/7/2024
The school itself is really good but sometimes there aren't standards being met that should be getting met.

It has the only IB program, the only Highly Gifted program, and some of the best sports teams in the state. It has so many opportuni...

I love this school. There are many programs offered which bring in people from all over Anchorage. From my experience, the staff are all very helpful and attentive, and are willing to challenge their students. Also a large variety of sports and clubs (some of which were student created) to join.
