A Colorado Springs kindergarten class has two sets of multiples.

The Denny quintuplets and the Langenbahn quadruplets are all in the same class at Prairie Hills Elementary School.

"It's definitely unique," said teacher Melissa Coleman, who has 4-year old twins of her own at home.

"I think I definitely have an advantage in that sense and I definitely have a heart for it," said Coleman.

So far, things are going well in Mrs. Coleman's class. Tuesday was the only the fifth day of school and the kids are already branching out and making new friends.

"I try to have them meet a new friend everyday. They usually come home and say mom I met my new friend today," said April Langenbahn, mother of the quadruplets.

Mrs. Coleman plans to work closely with the parents this year to help them decide if they want to keep their multiples in the same class next year.
