At Lisa J. Mails, we know that everyday the behavior choices we make affect not only us, but those around us as well. We will learn, on a daily basis, what it means to be an individual with outstanding character traits. While we incorporate H.E.A.R.T. in all we do, we learn that our Character Counts!
