Graduation will be doubly sweet for 15 families from Plainview, Long Island this spring. Plainview-Old Bethpage John F. Kennedy High School has 447 seniors in its 2025 graduating class, including 15 sets of twins. (Believe it or not, two sets of twins are named Josh and Rebecca!) “Most, if n ot all, have been in the district since kindergarten,” says Timothy Lamb, the school’s assistant principal. “Many met as infants because the parents joined a ‘parents of twins’ group. They’re all very friendly with each other. They’re all close. It’s like they have a little clique.” Luckily for the teachers, all 15 sets of twins are fraternal, and there are multiple sets of boy/girl twins, so there aren’t many cases of mistaken identity.  “Some teachers don’t even know they’re twins, even though some do look alike,” says Lamb. Mom Meredith Brake joined a twin parents support group when daughters Emily and Amanda were born. Courtesy Emily and Amanda Brake Meredith Brake is the mom of twins Emily, a basketball and flag football player attending the University of Georgia in the fall, and Amanda, who does volleyball and track and will head to Ohio State.  Brake is one of the parents who joined the “twins club” for advice, validation and empathy. They had a monthly meeting and a bi-annual garage sale to pass along baby items. She tells TODAY.com, “It was a great place to know you weren’t alone in this journey.”  Liam and Emma Heaney suspect that it will be “weird” to be separated in the fall. Courtesy Liam and Emma Heaney Twins Liam and Emma Heaney were never in the same elementary school classes, but they’ve been in some of the same classes in middle and high school.  Emma says, “We don’t really talk in class … ” and in classic twin fashion, Liam picks up the end of her sentence, “Because we talk so much out of class.” The pair say that there are three sets of twins in their friend group alone. Emma will be playing basketball at Lafayette in the fall while Liam is still weighing his options. Emma suspects that it might be “weird” for her parents to have their kids be in different places, “but I think it will be good for us to be on our own for the first time.” TODAY.com got the scoop on the future plans for some of the other twins. Kayla and Emma Leibowitz are attending different colleges but both are interested in sports and communication.

His twin sister Sydney says she does “every activity under the sun.” She’s still touring colleges and plans to double major in American Sign Language interpreting and neuroscience on the pre-med track. “Being a twin is an amazing experience,” says Sydney. “It means knowing I never have to enter anything alone and I always have a personal math tutor.” Congrats to all of the 2025 grads!
