She is a wife, mother and friend to many in her hometown of Stanberry, Missouri and across the country. Terri Is the Executive Director of the Missouri Association of Student Councils (MASC), recently received an appointment as president of the National Association of State Student Council Executive Directors, and also serves on the National Association of Student Councils Executive Board. Besides these duties and her unwavering Irish spirit, she is also known for her fabulous cooking. Over the years, Lafayette students and staff have enjoyed Terri's love of entertaining and down-home cooking. Some of Terri's favorite recipes are included in this book. She truly "bleeds green" and for her dedication to the Northside and especially to Lafayette High School, we thank her. Mrs. Johnson, as you begin your retirement, we leave you with your favorite quote: 'Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.' Muriel Strode Our thanks also go to the students, parents, staff, alumni and friends of the Northside schools who generously contributed their favorite recipes. Without their help, this book would have never been possible. We hope you will enjoy the many outstanding and treasured recipes on the following pages."

Humboldt Accelerated School was built in 1860. This historical building has much character and provides a warm school climate. Humboldt has a Title 1 school-wide program.
Charles A. Lindbergh Accelerated School was erected in 1931. An addition was constructed in 1962, which provided an additional eight classrooms. Lindbergh is proud of its active and supportive PTA and our 'Blue Ribbon' volunteer program, which has received district-wide recognition the past six school years.
In 1815, the Green Valley School (now Pershing Elementary) was built at the southeast corner of Rock Springs and Blackwell Roads. In 1925, a new brick and stone structure was built. It was called the 'model school.' In 1929 it was decided to rename the school in honor of the WWI Army General from Missouri, John J. Pershing, who headed the American Expeditionary Forces. Additions were made in 1953 and 1963 when the front half of the building was added. After the bond election in 2001, a new gymnasium and stage were built and the kitchen remodeled. Pershing holds a distinction that no other school has. The area was not annexed until 1926, but the school, from its beginning, was always a part of the St. Joseph School District."
