Rosa Louise (McCauley) Parks attended small rural schools as a youngster. At age 11 or 12, she enrolled at Industrial School for Girls in Montgomery, Alabama. Her secondary education began at a laboratory school set up by the Alabama State Teachers College for Negroes, but she dropped at to care for her ill grandmother and mother. With her husband's support, she finally earned her high school diploma in 1933. The summer of 1955 found Parks attending seminars at the Highlander Folk School for activism in workers' rights and racial equality.
