Being dual-enrolled at Fordson High School and HFC enabled the Saad sisters – Batool and Zeinab – to get comfortable taking college courses. It also set them on their career paths to becoming attorneys.

“I took an international relations class my junior year, which sparked my interest in law,” said Batool, a member of the Top 10 in her 2010 Fordson graduating class. “Starting at HFC really gave me the motivation and confidence to start my career.”
