History
The Linsly School is the oldest college preparatory school west of he Allegheny mountains and the only school of its kind in West Virginia. The original school, known as the Wheeling Lancastrian Academy, was founded as a coeducational institution in 1814 through a bequest by former Wheeling mayor Noah Linsly. By 1840, females were absent from school. In 1876, Linsly became a military institute. In 1968, Linsly moved to its present location and by 1979 had shifted from its military emphasis to embrace a college preparatory program. Coeducation was restored in 1988.
