This article addresses two key questions related to supporting students with disabilities through PBIS: (a) Why focus on universal classroom PBIS practices?—without support, students with disabilities experience poor outcomes—and (b) How do you implement PBIS in classrooms that support all students?—differentiate and intensify supports.  \nKeywords  \ndisorders/disabilities, positive behavioral supports, school/classroom management, school/classroom environments  \nPositive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) is amultitiered behavioral framework that provides a continuum of research- or evidence-based practices designed to benefit all students. More than 29,000 schools (www.pbis. org) implement PBIS to support more than 15 million students, including more than 2 million students with disabilities. Based on a public health prevention model, PBIS organizes support into three tiers of prevention. Tier 1 provides universal support for all students within a school setting, referred to as universal practices throughout this article. Tier 2 offers targeted support for students who require additional support to be successful. Tier 3 provides intensive support for students who engage in chronic or high-risk behaviors and require individualized support to be successful. Within each tier, school leadership teams use a data-driven process to develop systems that facilitate the implementation of research-or evidence-based practices to improve outcomes for students (Center on PBIS, 2015) . In this article, we focus on the importance of implementing universal practices in classrooms to support all students, including students with disabilities.  \nWhen educators implement universal PBIS with fidelity, outcomes improve. Specifically, students improve academic performance (Horner et al., 2009; Lee & Gage, 2020), social-emotional competence (Bradshaw et al., 2012), and attendance (Freeman et al., 2015) . Students also  \nengage in less disruptive and aggressive behaviors (Bradshaw et al., 2012), report fewer unhealthy and unsafe behaviors, such as drug and alcohol abuse (Bastable et al., 2015), and receive less reactive and exclusionary discipline, including office discipline referrals and suspensions (Bradshaw et al., 2010; Lee & Gage, 2020) . In addition, educators perceive PBIS schools as healthier and safer environments, with improved ratings of organizational health and school climate (Bradshaw et al., 2008), school safety (Horner et al., 2009), and teacher efficacy (Ross et al., 2012) . In the context of universal PBIS practices, researchers have found that effective classroom PBIS practices are critical to achieve improved outcomes (Childset al., 2016) and sustain PBIS implementation (Mathewset al., 2014) .  \nEmerging evidence suggests that students with disabilities benefit from universal supports (e.g., Bradshaw et al., 2012; Grasley-Boy et al., 2019) .
