'''Lausanne Collegiate School''' ({{IPAc-en|l|ɑː|z|æ|n}};<ref name="LCS At a Glance" /> previously '''Lausanne School for Girls''') is an [[independent school|independent]], [[mixed-sex education|coeducational]] college-placement school in [[Memphis, Tennessee]].  With grades for [[pre-kindergarten]] through [[twelfth grade#United States|twelfth grade]], the school has a sizable international population, with foreign nationals comprising {{1/3}} of the student body, representing 68 different countries.

With a {{age|Sep 1926}}-year history beginning in 1926, the previously single-sex boarding school has become a co-educational day school with grades [[Pre-kindergarten|Pre-K]]{{spaced en dash}}12.  An [[International Baccalaureate]] (IB) school since 2009, Lausanne adopted the program for all grades in 2018.  In 2017 it partnered with [[Fujian]]'s Xiamen #1 School to open another fully-IB school in [[Xiamen]], [[China]].

The international school has adopted contemporarily-new methods and attitudes throughout the years.  The current campus has specially-designed playground equipment, supports several academic and athletic teams, and was a filming location for 1993's [[The Firm (1993 film)|''The Firm'']].

==History==
[[File:Lausanne Collegiate School original schoolhouse.png|thumb|left|Original schoolhouse (Nov. 1926)]]
Originally a [[single-sex education|single-sex school]],<ref name="1992-09-24 Commercial Appeal" /> the Lausanne School for Girls<ref name="1992-05-25 Commercial Appeal" /> first opened its doors in 1926.<ref name="LCS At a Glance" />  At its outset, the school was jointly managed by Emma DeSaussure Jett, Sophia Alexander Gardner, Bessie Statler, and Florence Goyer Taylor.  The school was first located at 1649 Central Avenue, in a home previously called the "Cary House"; ''[[The Commercial Appeal]]'' called the building especially suited to schooling with the possibility of expanding it in the future.<ref name="1926-06-15 Commercial Appeal" />  Lausanne began accepting [[mixed-sex education|both sexes of students]] for the 1966–67 [[academic year]].<ref name="1990-10-29 Commercial Appeal" />{{clear|left}}

===Boarding===
Lausanne credited a Mrs. L. K. Thompson for the school's history of [[boarding school|boarding]] students.  Thompson, a "benefactress whose name was almost synonymous with the school", had friends in [[Little Rock, Arkansas]], who wanted their children enrolled at Lausanne.  After putting up the girls in her attic, similar demand led the school to construct a [[dormitory]].<ref name="1990-10-29 Commercial Appeal" />

Lausanne's co-educational transition was also the heyday of its boarding program,<ref name="1992-09-24b Commercial Appeal" /> whose numbers hovered around 100.  The 1970s saw a decline in demand for boarding schools, and when Lausanne's number dropped, some dormitories were transformed into classrooms.  By the 1990–91 academic year, Lausanne had 285 students and only 18 boarders—four of whom were from [[East Asia]];<ref name="1990-10-29 Commercial Appeal" /> in early 1992, it was the only girls' boarding program in [[Shelby County, Tennessee]].<ref name="1992-01-16 Commercial Appeal" />  Six months later, with only eight boarders, Lausanne ended its history of boarding; four [[twelfth grade#United States|seniors]] were diverted to private homes for their last year of school.  Though it was estimated that 18 boarders would be financially sufficient to re-board students, Headmaster Elder was doubtful of the program's odds for resurrection.<ref name="1992-09-24b Commercial Appeal" />

In July 1991, Lausanne [[head teacher|headmaster]] Logan Malone resigned his position to join the [[Mid-South Foundation for Medical Care]].  For the 1991–92 academic year, board member Toni Watson served in Malone's stead while a full-time headmaster was [[executive search|headhunted]].  On July 1, 1992, [[New Orleans]] native<ref name="1992-01-16 Commercial Appeal" /> George B. Elder (born {{birth based on age as of date|45|1992|09|24|noage=1|mos=1}})<ref name="1992-09-24 Commercial Appeal" /> took the top spot at Lausanne.  Elder expressed interest in broadening awareness of Lausanne, shedding its "school for girls" image, and increasing enrollment.  The Lausanne [[board of directors]] expressed excitement about Elder's experience (headmastering four previous schools), "his [[fundraising|fund-raising]] ability, which is always a consideration for a private school; his attitude; his interest in athletics and the theater. He just has it all."<ref name="1992-01-16 Commercial Appeal" />  Elder's first year at Lausanne saw 64% increased enrollment.<ref name="1992-09-24 Commercial Appeal" />

==Academics==
A private school in [[Memphis, Tennessee]],<ref name="2016-04-21 Memphis Business Journal" /> {{as of|2016|lc=yes}} Lausanne was the number one [[college placement]] school in [[Shelby County, Tennessee]].<ref name="2016-04-09 Commercial Appeal" />

===Specialty programming===
====International Baccalaureate====
Lausanne has been an [[International Baccalaureate]] school since December 7, 2009.<ref name="International Baccalaureate profile" />

Beginning in 2018, all Lausanne students from [[pre-kindergarten]] up began participating in the [[IB Diploma Programme|International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme]] (IBDP),<ref name="2016-12-07 Commercial Appeal" /> a [[curriculum]] where, instead of focusing on students regurgitating correct answers, "the teacher's role is about helping the students come up with the right question".  Compared with college-level work, Lausanne's admissions director—Laura Trott—said that the IBDP is "not about just one class or checking off one box [...] It's really understanding that all those strong [[reading]] and [[writing]] skills tie in with all those [[mathematics|mathematical]] skills and [[critical thinking|critical-thinking]] skills."<ref name="2017-01-14 Memphis Daily News" />

====Meditation====
Starting the 2012–13 [[academic year]], [[middle school#United States|middle school]] students aged 10–14 were offered the opportunity to [[meditation|meditate]] during their 10–15 minute [[recess (break)|recess break]].  Middle school [[head teacher]] Greg Graber started the program—called "mental recess"—to help students [[stress relief|relieve stress]], perform better on [[standardized test]]s, and disconnect from their [[mobile computing]] devices.<ref name="2012-04-30 WREG" />

==Admissions==
Prospective students must take an [[test (assessment)|exam]] and score within a certain percentage, and make it through an [[interview]] process.<ref name="2016-04-09 Commercial Appeal" />  In 1992, annual tuition could run as high as {{US$|5500|1992|long=no}}.<ref name="1992-09-24 Commercial Appeal" />

In summer 2006, Lausane developed its own [[house system]] for [[middle school#United States|middle-schoolers]]; the sub-units were named Cottingham, Lendenwood, Massey, and Monmouth.<ref name="2010-12-03 Commercial Appeal" />

In 2020, arising from the widespread [[Black Lives Matter]] movement, concerns about inequity, and the [[2020–21 United States racial unrest]], Lausanne formed a task force with the purpose of creating an inclusive environment at the school.  Lausanne, whose "student population was nearly 50% [[person of color|people of color]] — and among the highest percentages for a Memphis independent school", was spurred by alumni who felt the school wasn't doing enough to hire non-whites (who by February 2021 only amounted to 11% of the staff), and needed to only contract with similarly inclusive vendors.<ref name="2021-02-17 Memphis Business Journal" />

===Athletic===

As of 1992, Lausanne fielded boys' athletic teams in [[basketball]], [[golf]], [[track and field]], and [[tennis]].  The school also had several girls' teams.<ref name="1992-07-29 Commercial Appeal" />

====American football====
Capitalizing on its still-increasing numbers of male students, Lausanne started its [[American football]] program with the 1992–93 [[academic year]].  By July 29, 16 boys had already applied for the new team.<ref name="1992-07-29 Commercial Appeal" />  The team won their seasons in 2013 and 2014, and made their inaugural visit to the playoffs in 2015, losing to state champ [[St. George's Independent School]] "in the Division 2-A quarterfinals to finish 8-4."  In 2016, Lausanne had three players being [[scout (sport)|scouted]] by the [[United States Military Academy]] and [[United States Naval Academy|Naval Academy]].<ref name="2016-04-09 Commercial Appeal" />

==Campus==
[[File:Lausanne Discovery Center Aerial.jpg|thumb|left|alt=An aerial photograph of the campus featuring a driveway, blue-and-green playground, and several brick buildings.  Behind the buildings, only large green trees can be seen.|Discovery Center (front), lower school (center-rear), and EPAC (right)]]
Lausanne's Memphis campus has {{convert|30|acre}} of land,<ref name="LCS At a Glance" /> and its first buildings were built in the 1960s.<ref name="2015-08-10 Memphis Business Journal" />  In 2008, Lausanne was a recipient of an [[American Academy of Dermatology]] [[grant (money)|grant]] for the construction of "[[shade (shadow)|shade]] structures" to protect students from damaging [[ultraviolet]] radiation.<ref name="2008-08 Dermatology Nursing" />

===International Outdoor Discovery Center===
When planning to replace an existing [[playground]] for its lower school students (pre-kindergarten through [[fourth grade#United States|fourth grade]])<ref name="2015-08-10 Memphis Business Journal" /> in the campus' front, Lausanne desired not only a globally-themed installation, but also an enhancement to the school's [[curb appeal]].  Lausanne contracted with Landscape Structures after that company best-translated Lausanne's themes into a real-world proposal.<ref name="2018-04 District Administration" />  The final design was partly the contribution of the Lausanne graduating-class of 2024.<ref name="2015-08-10 Memphis Business Journal" />

[[Groundbreaking]] happened in early summer 2015,<ref name="2015-08-10 Memphis Business Journal" /> and was finished by that August.  Featuring replicas of [[Big Ben]], the [[Eiffel Tower]], and the [[Taj Mahal]],<ref name="2018-04 District Administration" /> the International Outdoor Discovery Center (IODC) has 14 different structures representing international locales laid out on a surface designed after a [[Rand McNally]] [[world map]].  Lausanne told the ''Memphis Business Journal'' that "the playground structures provide 61 individual play events with 95 themed custom elements, 70 of which are unique to the site at Lausanne".<ref name="2015-08-10 Memphis Business Journal" />

Director of operations at Lausanne, Stewart Crais, praised the IODC after its opening, expecting the space to last at least 20 years.<ref name="2018-04 District Administration" />  The playground replaced by the IODC was reinstalled at [[Promise Academy]].<ref name="2015-08-10 Memphis Business Journal" />

===Xiamen, Fujian===
After an "extensive search across the U.S." for schools using the [[IB Diploma Programme]] (IBDP),<ref name="2016-12-07 Commercial Appeal" /> [[Fujian]]'s Xiamen #1 School approached Lausanne in September 2014 about partnering to open another IBDP school in [[Xiamen]], [[China]].  The partnership was facilitated by Lausanne's relationship with the [[Confucius Institute]].  According to Lausanne headmaster Stuart McCathie, {{nowrap|"[Xiamen}} #1 School] were looking for a school that had an international population, an enviable college placement record, the IB program and that was located in the U.S.  And through that metric they found us".  Facing a maximized enrollment, and looking for additional revenue streams, Lausanne agreed to the partnership.<ref name="2017-01-14 Memphis Daily News" />

Announced by Lausanne [[chairman|chairwoman]] Noma Anderson in 2016, the new "Xiamen #1 Lausanne International School" had a construction budget of US$50{{spaces}}million (equivalent to about ${{inflation|US|50|2016|r=1}}M in {{inflation/year|US}}), was scheduled to open in August 2017, and was expected to eventually support 1200 students.  Once open, the new international school would offer teacher and [[student exchange program]]s between the Memphis and Fujian institutions,<ref name="2016-12-07 Commercial Appeal" /> as well as five- and seven-day [[boarding school|boarding]].<ref name="2017-01-14 Memphis Daily News" />

==Legacy==
In 2022, [[Niche (company)|Niche]] ranked Lausanne the third-best private high school in Tennessee.  In October 2023, it moved to first place.  Nationally, it ranked 248th.<ref name="2023-10-03 WREG" />

===Miscellaneous===
Several scenes of 1993's [[The Firm (1993 film)|''The Firm'']] were filmed at Lausanne, which stood in for the [[private school]] at which character [[Abby McDeere]] teaches.  Production crews fenced-off the school's playground prior to Christmas 1992, and [[semi-trailer truck]]s began arriving at West Massey Road on January 5.  Actors [[Jeanne Tripplehorn]] and [[Gene Hackman]] were on-campus for shooting.  Headmaster Elder asked for filming to take place during the [[academic year]] to allow for a [[school assembly]] with cast and crew; the [[film producer|film's producer]] agreed to meet with students and bring a cast member with him.<ref name="1993-01-06 Commercial Appeal" />
