A high school graduation ceremony in Pennsylvania is set to look a little different this summer.

According to CBS News, Norwin High School in Westmoreland County will see 11 sets of twins receive their high school diplomas at the end of the school year.

"You always have a friend around, so it's like you're never really bored," student Sophie Bowser told the outlet. "I always have someone to talk to."

Speaking about being part of the 11 pairs of twins, Luke Klamut added, "It's super interesting to see. I'm not sure if this is a record, but it's super interesting. If anyone is like, 'Do you have a fun fact?' you can be like, 'Well I graduated with 10 other sets of twins in high school.' "

Norwin High School Principal Dr. Michael Choby also shared his thoughts on the news, explaining that despite the students being twins, they were individuals with different personalities.

“Very different personalities as a group and as twins for sure. It makes them special and makes them unique, as you mentioned, it makes them unique to hang around with at school," he told the outlet.

Choby added that he had never experienced having so many twins graduate at the same time.

"I also am a parent of twins," he added. "So I have twins here at Norwinn School District, not in high school yet, but someday. I don't know if there's something the water."
