It’s not uncommon to see couples in the Mansfield Independent School District in Texas.
This year, as many as 35 twins and a hat-trick will graduate from six high schools in the area with a total of 2,600 students.
With twins occurring in about one in every 250 births, there will only be 10 or 11 twins in a college body this size.
To create a memory of the twins’ full graduating class specifically, their coats were put together to be photographed last week.
This year, 35 pairs of twins — and a string of triples — will graduate from Texas’ Mansfield Independent School District.
The group photos were taken on one of the high school football fields. The schools are all located in the town of Mansfield, but also serve students in parts of Arlington and Grand Prairie.
The laughing twins posed with balloons and “2022” signs, and several sets emerged with matching outfits, some of which wore their graduation gowns.
“We all have a connection because we’ve all lived life with someone else next to us,” said Avery Slimak, who was there with her identical twin, Keaton. Today†
“It was really nice to be together in one place.”

“It was really nice that we were all in the same place,” said her twin sister, Avery Slimak (not pictured).
Matt, the father of the Slimak twins, agreed.
“It was really cool to see how they interacted with each other. “There’s no doubt that the floors have a special bond,” he said.
That special bond remains strong even as the two start college: In September, the Slimak twins will be heading to the University of Texas, where they’ll be roommates.
“As things change next year, it will be nice to have the comfort of living with my best friend,” Avery said. “We endured everything together”
While some of the twins plan to go to the same university, some of them are separated.
Several people came to the group photo in matching outfits
Some twins are clearly identical, while others are siblings.
Meanwhile, fraternal twins Anthony and Angela Morka gain some independence in the new school year.
Anthony enrolls at the University of Houston while Angela attends Yale University.
“Being this far away would definitely be a fit,” said their mother, Stella Roberson. “But I know I’m on the phone. They’ll encourage each other as usual.’
“It’s definitely going to be a change because we won’t be together as we always have been, but we can always call and text each other and we’re still there for each other,” Anthony said. KTVT †
