Do you have frequent flyer students? You know the ones. They're the students that are always popping into your office or tracking you down in the hallway. I’m sure you can think of multiple high schoolers who fit this description!

On one hand, you’re grateful that they find you to be a safe space at school. They trust you, and even seek you out, which is your goal after all, right? You are in this role to help students. I’m 100% with you. But, let’s be honest here. Your frequent flyer students take up a lot of your time.

I have four ideas that you can utilize when it comes to your frequent flyer students. These are simple things that you can put into practice that will help these students become more independent and less, well, needy! That way you can give them the help you need while still managing the rest of your caseload.
