Twin Teens Make Headlines for Being the Top Of Their Graduating Class…Together [Video]

» by tffhthewriter May 27, 2010, 15:25pm

Two teens in Texas have beat the odds in more ways than one.

Twin teens LaTonya and LaToya Harris are not only identical twins, but they also have identical grades, making them both the valedictorians of their graduating class.

The teens who plan to attend the University of Texas, are the first “twins” to reach such an honor.

The parent of the teens state that they “have been baffled at their daughters since birth” and are “proud'” of the young women.

The young ladies who are best friends, plan on rooming together in the fall.

With all of the mess that is going on in the schools today, it is great to see some young women making headlines for a positive reason.

Hip-Hop Wired would like to say congratulations to LaTonya and Latoya for beating the odds.
