After she married Raymond Parks, Mr. Parks encouraged Mrs. Parks to finish high school. The year they got married was 1932 and approximately 11 years after, Mrs. Rosa Parks, achieved her high school diploma, approximately at age 30.
Rosa Parks was unable to go to college. When she graduated high school in 1934 women and blacks were not allowed to enroll in southern colleges. It isn't until the 1960's and the civil rights movement that the first black man will be enrolled. By 1970 only about one student in 50 in the non-black colleges were black. It wasn't until 1954 that school desegregation was ordered by the Supreme Court, so Rosa Parks never had the chance to attend college and became a housekeeper.
Rosa was born on February 4, 1913
