Transferred to Booker T. Washington Junior High School

Rosa Parks attended the Industrial School for Girls in Montgomery, where she engaged in both academic and vocational courses. This institution played a crucial role in her early education, providing her with foundational skills and knowledge. However, with the closure of the Industrial School for Girls, Parks made the transition to Booker T. Washington Junior High School for her final year of formal education. This move marked a significant shift in her academic journey, as she adapted to a new environment and continued her studies. The experiences and education she received during this period contributed to her development and later activism, as she became a pivotal figure in the civil rights movement. The transition to Booker T. Washington Junior High School not only reflects the challenges faced by African American students during this era but also highlights the importance of educational institutions in shaping future leaders.
