Their website says:

Julia R. Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School is the most highly ranked school in the School District of Philadelphia and scores at the highest level on the Pennsylvania System of Statewide Assessment. Masterman combines the best aspects of a small, selective school with the more diverse curriculum and activities of a larger school. Our college preparatory high school program offers students the opportunity to become part of a challenging community of learners while offering a variety of co-curricular activities.

9th Grade Geometry teacher Chris Taranta says:

As part of our study of geometry, my students learned about tessellations and then were assigned to create two tessellations. Many students drew one by hand and did the other using computer graphics. They used tessellations.org as the primary web resource for their research. A main component of the assignment involved beginning with a shape that could be tessellated, such as a triangle or parallelogram, and then manipulating the lines to create a design that could then be filled with a recognizable object such as an animal. Some students went beyond the basics of the assignment and showed the steps they used in that process.

A note from the Webmaster: Some of these pieces of art are so good, I think they should definitely enter the free tessellation contest offered twice a year at www.WorldOfEscher.com/contest . I'm sure they'd pass the first level of judging, and I would love to see whether they would win all the top three prizes.
