PHS has Twosomes of Twins
by Kaila Spieker
PHS has many twins this 2020-21 school year, in fact, nine pairs. Although the twins come from the same family, both of them are very different and unique from each other. Every twin has different fingerprints, even if they are identical twins that look almost the same. There are also fraternal twins that do not look the same.
In the United States, twins were 3 in 100 pregnancies.
These pairs at PHS include six seniors, Luke and Zach Collison, Dustin and Travis Jensen, and Sarah and Tristan Miller.
Dustin Jensen expresses how being a twin can be a disadvantage by saying, “People get us mixed up all the time because we look so much alike.”
Other twins at PHS are juniors, Max and Colton Cooper. In junior high, the eighth grade twins are Alexis and Avery Hahne, Brecken and Bradyn Schwartz, and Weston and Wyatt Stemick. A couple more twin sets in the seventh grade are Alyssa and Sydney Kuper, and Clay and Dierck White.
Sydney Kuper, a seventh grader, said, “Even though we are twins, we are both very different people with different personalities.”
Even if twins look exactly alike, they are not, and have very different characteristics. They are still different if they don’t look alike by having different personalities, too.
