The Ohio River Valley is home to the Marshall County Schools Team located in the northern panhandle of West Virginia. The river provides a border between our state and Ohio. Our school district includes 12 elementary schools, 4 junior high schools, and 2 high schools. There are about 1,800 students. Moundsville is the county seat of Marshall County, and is home to the Grave Creek Mound, the town's namesake. The Mound is the largest Adena Indian Burial Mound this side of the Mississippi River. Clark sketched the mound when on his way to see relatives that lived on Captina Creek, located just south of Moundsville.
