Class links students with autism to those without 		   
Summary Statement:

On Dec. 20, Andre, a student in the district's Autism Spectrum Disorder program, made fruit smoothies with Peer Link pals Jeremy Schaldenbrand, 13, and Alex Stauffer, 12, CMS seventh-graders, and distributed them to teachers in the building.

All the while, Andre, donning a Santa hat like his pals, beamed.
