Spalding Institute
(Redirected from Spalding Catholic High School)
The Spalding Institute (a boys' school) was a Catholic high school located across the street from the Academy of Our Lady (a girls' school) in downtown Peoria, IL. The schools merged in 1973 to form the co-ed Academy of Our Lady/Spalding Institute. In 1988, the school merged again, this time with Bergan High School to form Peoria Notre Dame High School.
Joe Girardi and Pete Vonachen went to Spalding Institute and Ron Maestri coached there.
