"Confidential Concerns: High School Counselor Uses Anonymous Question Box to Support Students" In a bid to create a safe and supportive environment for her students, Tecumseh Public Schools counselor Krystalyn Musselman has resorted to an unconventional yet innovative approach: an anonymous question box. The worn cardboard box, which Musselman holds up during a Zoom call, serves as a confidant for high schoolers who may be hesitant to share their concerns or struggles with their peers or even their own parents.

But what kinds of questions are students asking, and how is Musselman using this unique tool to make a difference in their lives?
