The education of Rosa Louise McCauley Parks [February 4, 1913-October 24, 2005] involved a combination of homeschooling, and of public school attendance. Parks was in poor health as a child. So she was homeschooled, on her maternal grandparents' farm outside Montgomery, until she was 11. For her mother, Leona Edwards McCauley, was a teacher. Then Parks took academic and vocational courses at the Industrial School for Girls in Montgomery, Alabama. She went on to attend a special laboratory school that the Alabama State Teachers College for Negroes had set up, for secondary education. But she didn't finish the coursework, due to the failing healths of her grandmother and then of her mother. In 1932, Parks married Montgomery barber Raymond Parks. Her husband encouraged her to go back to school. So she received her high school diploma, in the following year.
