School Song:

We’re all pals together
Comrades, birds 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

Fight Song:

Go you Rockets, GO, GO, GO
For good old JM High
We will never let you down
Our spirit is the best, RAH, RAH, RAH
Fighting Rockets onward we go
Driving striving on to the goal
Fight, fight, for JM High
It's the school that we love the best
