Affordable, Durable, and Effective: Educators Praise NuGerm’s NuKase for Eliminating Classroom Distractions

School leaders call NuGerm’s NuKase a “one-stop program” for phone management and improved classroom focus.

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, October 31, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- With smartphones now one of the leading sources of classroom distraction, educators across the country are turning to NuGerm’s NuKase — a lockable phone case system that helps K–12 schools restore focus, safety, and accountability during the school day.

Administrators are reporting significant success with the NuKase program, describing it as “affordable and durable, great for schools to use as a one-stop program for eliminating distractions.”

One school leader shared:

“It’s a simple and effective solution with a company that supports its use as a Tier 2 intervention. The case is durable and easy to use. It allows students to see if they’re getting calls or notifications from family or workplaces, so they can respond appropriately in emergencies. Since we introduced the NuKases, we’ve seen major improvements in student engagement and a clear drop in phone usage in classes.”

Solving the Modern Classroom Distraction Problem

Educators across the U.S. have identified smartphone use as a growing obstacle to learning. According to a recent study by Common Sense Media, more than 97% of teenagers use their phones during school hours, often leading to reduced attention, cheating, and social tension.

Many states, including Florida, California, and Tennessee, have enacted or are exploring phone-free learning legislation, leaving districts in search of solutions that are both effective and student-friendly.

The NuKase offers a physical, daily-use solution that reinforces school policy without requiring invasive technology or confiscation. Each student places their phone inside a personal NuKase at the start of the day, keeps it with them in their backpack, and unlocks it at dismissal or under supervision in emergencies.

Designed for Safety, Structure, and Simplicity

Unlike confiscation-based or signal-jamming methods, the NuKase allows visibility and personal responsibility while keeping phones securely locked away during instructional time.

NuGerm’s system supports both classroom-level and schoolwide deployment, with multiple unlocking workflows:

-Staff-monitored magnetic unlocking stations for fast, synchronized end-of-day release.
-Portable unlockers for selective and emergency access (library, gym, office, etc.).

Real-World Results in K–12 Classrooms

Since its introduction, the NuKase has been adopted by hundreds of schools nationwide, ranging from middle schools in rural districts to large urban high schools.

-Administrators consistently report measurable benefits:
-Up to 90% reductions in unauthorized phone use during instructional periods.
-Noticeable increases in class participation and time-on-task.
-Improved student behavior and fewer disciplinary referrals tied to phone violations.
-Positive teacher feedback, citing calmer classrooms and easier lesson flow.

A district IT coordinator in Texas noted:

“The NuKase has taken phone enforcement out of teachers’ hands. Students understand it’s part of the routine, and the transparency of being able to see their phone through the case reduces anxiety. It’s been the easiest behavioral intervention we’ve implemented in years.”

Balancing Focus and Safety

One of the most praised aspects of the NuKase system is its approach to safety and accessibility. The transparent case design allows students to see if a family member or workplace is calling without unlocking the case, reducing anxiety about emergencies while keeping instruction uninterrupted.

Built for Education Budgets

The NuKase is available in two models — NuKase 3.0 and NuKase XL — both featuring shatter-resistant construction and long-term durability tested under daily K–12 use.

Schools appreciate that the program involves no recurring software fees, no network setup, and minimal staff training. NuGerm offers free evaluation units and optional virtual training sessions for schools interested in piloting the system before full rollout.

“The affordability is what makes this work at scale,” said a high school assistant principal in California. “We outfitted every student for less than the cost of a single classroom’s worth of Chromebooks.”

Nationwide Availability and Purchasing Options

The NuKase is now available through multiple cooperative purchasing programs and state contracts, allowing districts to procure without individual bidding. The company also partners with educational distributors to ensure fast fulfillment and warranty support across all 50 states.

Schools can request demos or samples directly through NuGerm’s website, and the company provides hands-on onboarding materials and emergency access playbooks to ensure smooth implementation.
