A Language School Sets Up Shop on Egypt Lane

Crossing Borders Language Center opened its Magnolia location in June at 33300 Egypt Lane, Suite J100. The school teaches Spanish, French, English and other languages, and it takes students across the whole range: kids, teens, and adults who always meant to get around to it.

The format list is longer than you might expect for a storefront school. There are group classes and private lessons, summer camps for kids, online classes for people who can't make the drive, and corporate classes for businesses that want a team learning together. Details and schedules are on the school's site, crossingborderslanguages.com.

This paper publishes every story in English and Spanish, so we'll admit a rooting interest. Magnolia is a two-language town at the counter, at the ballfield, and in the school pickup line. A place where a kid can pick up French, a parent can polish workplace English, or an English speaker can finally learn enough Spanish to talk with a neighbor properly seems like a good fit here.

If you enroll, or if you run a business that signs the team up for a class, tell us how it goes. First-day-of-class stories welcome.
