What is the DREAMS Matrix?

The SVA DREAMS Behavior Matrix brings our core values to life by showing students what positive behavior looks like in every school setting. Rather than simply outlining rules, it provides clear, consistent expectations that help students make responsible decisions, build meaningful relationships, and contribute to a respectful, safe, and welcoming school community. Through daily practice and positive reinforcement, our students learn the skills that prepare them for success in school, in leadership, and in life.

We Celebrate Positive Choices

Students who consistently demonstrate the DREAMS values are recognized throughout the school year through PBIS celebrations, acknowledgments, leadership opportunities, and school-wide incentives. By recognizing positive behaviors, we reinforce the habits that help every student succeed academically, socially, and emotionally.
