MacFlaps from roaming clients on WLAN

I recently inherited a school district network from a guy who hated documentation. I finished a networking program in spring 2020 and that's the extent of My networking experience. My switch logs (primarily 9300's with a few 3850's) are filled with MacFlaps from AP ports. I'm about 60% sure it's a result of clients switching between AP's on a whim. I understand this is causing mac address tables to update more frequently than is desirable, but is it actually doing any harm? If it is, is there a setting somewhere in a wlan controller to adjust AP greediness or perhaps a different solution I can't seem to find with an internet search? Any help would be tremendously appreciated!
