Use a time-tracking computer app, such as Rescue Time, to understand how you’re spending your time online. You might be losing a lot of hours you could be studying chatting with guys. Keep track of your time to make sure you’re spending enough time on your schoolwork. An hourly study target can help you sideline boy distractions. Consult your planner and prioritize the assignments for the coming week. Use the distraction-free time when everyone else is consumed with a party to get a head start on the most difficult tasks. Doing this will make your school week easier, as you’ll have gotten the most difficult work out of the way. In the evenings, take 5 minutes to set an academic goal for the next day. It may be reading 3 chapters of your history lesson, understanding a hard math problem, or talking with your teacher about your writing skills. Naming a concrete thing you’d like to achieve keeps your attention focused on the goal rather than on boys. It may help to write your goal down in your day planner to keep it at the top of your mind. You can refer back to it when you’re feeling distracted. While setting small goals can keep you going from day to day, you need a bigger purpose to keep you motivated about school. Whether you’ll be the first in your family to attend college or you have a particular job in mind, think about some long-term achievements your studies are building towards. Staying connected to your dreams will make it easier to ignore the background drama of boys, dances, and crushes. Focusing on school is easier when you know you’ll get a break to indulge in your boy-craziness occasionally. You might reward yourself with social time when you hit an academic goal. Find a way of being social that works for you and helps you achieve balance with your studies.  For example, you might make a deal with yourself that you can go to a dance if you finish your social studies paper early. You may even work harder on your paper because you really want to go to the dance. Remember that most high school relationships don’t last. While it may feel like focusing on your studies takes you out of some social loop, what you learn in school is way more enduring and useful than any boy could be to you.
