Also, students are not to be carrying cigarettes. Possession of cigarettes is treated in the same manner as smoking. Suspension will result from violation of the school’s smoking rules.

State law forbids the use or possession of alcoholic beverages by individuals under 21 years of age. Attendance at any JMHS function by a student who has possession or has imbibed any kind of alcoholic beverages will result in suspension.

Corridor Etiquette:

Corridor are passage ways from one room to another and should not be used as lounging or gathering places either before or after school or between classes.

Keep to the right in the halls and on the stairs. Walk at a moderately brisk pace without running or pushing. Refrain from whistling, shouting, loud talking, and scuffling. Remove hats or caps, and boots or overshoes upon entering the building.

Dress Policy:

In general, it is important that the dress for boys and girls be neat, clean, and one that will ensure that all students are a credit to their school. The entire code suggests a mode of dress and grooming that is normal and in good taste. Student grooming which is such that it detracts from the educational progress will be unacceptable, and the student will be removed from the school environment until the proper changes have been made.

School Song

We’re all pals together
Comrades, bird of a feather
Fighting pals, striving pals,
Driving pals, winning pals,
For Alma Mater
Pals say we’re brothers
Pull for each other
For if you choose, you’ll never lose
But give your best to your high school
Fight for J.M. High
