Our dear friend Dr. Annemarie Roeper passed away yesterday morning.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
I feel so very honored to have known her. During our five years of working together, we had many adventures; including travels to one of our favorite places in the universe -- Big Sur -- and publishing many books and articles.</div>

Over the past year, we had been working together on a memoir about her childhood in Germany. She made me promise to finish it, and I was so happy to be able to put the first draft in her hands shortly before she died. Much has been written about Annemarie and the Bondy family, but she was delighted to know that this chapter in her life story would be fully told. MARIENAU will be published in the next month and I think it will be a wonderful tribute to Annemarie's exceptional life.</div>

Should you wish to leave a note for the family, you can visit http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/annemarieroeper. Over 3000 comments have been written since the site was posted last week, which should give you an idea of the powerful force Annemarie was here on earth. Now that she is part of what she called, "The Mystery," I'm sure she will continue to be a magnificent guiding angel to us all.</div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span><b>Bloomfield Hills, Mich.</b></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">, May 11, 2012 - Annemarie Bondy Roeper, educator, author, and a founder of The Roeper School, a nationally recognized independent school for the gifted in Bloomfield Hills, Mich., died May 11, 2012 in Oakland, California.<span> </span>She was 93.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span><span> </span>Annemarie Roeper and her husband, George Roeper, who passed away in 1992, established the school in Detroit in 1941 with nine students.<span> </span>Their educational vision encompassed a profound respect for the individual and a commitment to freedom of growth and learning within an emotionally and intellectually supportive community.<span> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span>Today the school serves 560 students from preschool through high school, and Annemarie is recognized as a pioneering figure in the field of education.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Throughout her life, Annemarie was a consistent voice for the individual soul of each child.<span> </span>As she wrote in her book <i>Educating Children for Life</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">, “Humanity has made two promises to its children.<span> </span>The first is to prepare a world which accepts them and provides them with opportunities to live, grow, and create in safety.<span> </span>The other is to help them develop their whole beings to the fullest in every respect.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span>As the daughter of educators, Annemarie began absorbing educational ideas early.<span> </span>She was born in Vienna on August 27, 1918, toward the end of the First World War.<span> </span>Her mother, Gertrud Bondy, was a medical doctor and psychoanalyst in training with Sigmund Freud at the time.<span> </span>After the war, she and her husband, Max Bondy, embarked on a career in education, founding a series of schools based on a psychoanalytic understanding of human development and a desire to educate children to build and thrive in a pluralistic, democratic society.<span> </span>Annemarie grew up in her parents’ school, and met her future husband when he arrived as a student in 1923.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span>The Bondys were Jewish by heritage and when the Nazi Party ascended to power in the 1930s, they were forced out of their school (Schule Marienau, which is still operating outside Hamburg) and fled first to Switzerland and then, in 1939, to the United States.<span> </span>Annemarie and George were invited to come to Detroit in 1941 to direct a psychoanalytically oriented nursery school and established a grade school as well.<span> </span>Their modern, humanistic approach to education was immensely attractive and the school grew rapidly.<span> </span>In 1946, they purchased a campus in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, and in 1981 the school expanded to include a second campus in Birmingham, Michigan.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span>Over the years, Annemarie and George were innovators as educators and people.<span> </span>Early civil rights activists, they embraced integration as both a moral and educational principle.<span> </span>They integrated the student body in 1955 and the school’s first Board of Advisors in 1956.<span> </span>That same year, Annemarie and George convened a panel of national experts in the nascent field of gifted education to develop a curriculum for gifted children.<span> </span>In September, the school became only the second elementary school in the country to focus exclusively on gifted education.<span> </span>In 1965, participating in another ground-breaking endeavor, Annemarie consulted with Joan Ganz Cooney on the development of the <i>Sesame Street</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> program.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span>Annemarie became a pioneer in the emerging gifted education community, leading a movement to emphasize gifted children’s emotional needs as well as their intellectual needs.<span> </span>Annemarie taught courses in gifted education at Oakland University, and in 1978 she and George founded the <i>Roeper Review</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">, a peer-reviewed scholarly quarterly that is still published by the school.<span> </span>Annemarie retired from the school in 1980, although she remained a member of the Board of Trustees until 2002.<span> </span>She established a consultation practice in gifted education, and was in demand as a speaker nationally and internationally.<span> </span>In 1989, Annemarie received the President’s Award from the National Association for Gifted Children for a lifetime of distinguished service to the field.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span> </span>Annemarie never completed any higher education after high school.<span> </span>In 1937, while a medical student at the University of Vienna, she was the youngest person ever accepted by Sigmund and Anna Freud to study child psychoanalysis with them.<span> </span>The German invasion of Austria in March 1938 prevented her from beginning her studies.<span> </span>She fled on the last train to cross the Austrian frontier before the Germans invaded, and the Freuds fled soon after.<span> </span>In 1978, Eastern Michigan University awarded an honorary doctorate to Annemarie, as well as to her husband, George.<span> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Over her career, Annemarie published more than 100 articles and book chapters, three scholarly books (<i>The “I” of the Beholder:<span> </span>A Guided Journey to the Essence of a Child; My Life Experiences with Children:<span> </span>Selected Writings and Speeches; </i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">and <i>Educating Children for Life:<span> </span>The Modern Learning Community</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">), four children’s books, and a recent meditation on dying called <i>Beyond Old Age</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">.<span> </span>She also developed the Annemarie Roeper Method of Qualitative Assessment to provide a more holistic understanding of a child’s abilities and personality.<span> </span>She has been listed in <i>Who’s Who, Women of the World</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> and <i>Who’s Who of American Wome</i></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">n.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">In addition to co-founding and nurturing The Roeper School for 71 years, Annemarie mentored other educators who took her principles with them to other classrooms and to schools they founded, including the late Eleanor Siegl, who founded The Little School in Bellevue, Wash., and Anne Beneventi, co-founder of the New Helios School in Palo Alto, California.<span> </span>In addition, numerous alumni who have become teachers have spoken of her influence on their practice.<span> </span>Alumni who are parents have shared their gratitude for having their parenting style shaped by the deep respect for children they experienced from Annemarie.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Annemarie is survived by her brother, Heinz Bondy and his wife, Carolyn, of Germantown, Md.; by three children:<span> </span>Tom Roeper and his wife Laura Holland, of Amherst, Mass., Peter Roeper and his wife Martha Harnly, of Oakland, California., and Karen Roeper and her husband Peter Rosselli, of Muir Beach, California; three grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Her innovative approach focuses on the inner world of the child--who the child is--instead of what he or she can do. The Annemarie Roeper Method of Qualitative Assessment is a profound contribution to the assessment of gifted children. </span></span></span></span></div><div style="line-height: 1.22em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #20124d;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />

She has laid the foundation for many schools for the gifted, including the Roeper School, the Logan School for Creative Learners and the Rocky Mountain School. She can help schools create a supportive community, while retaining their individual missions and vision. </span></span></span></span></div><div style="line-height: 1.22em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #20124d;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
