11 Feb Indiana Senate Bill 78: Bell to Bell and Phone-Free Hoosier Schools
Indiana Senate Bill 78 brings phone-free learning to every Hoosier school. Administrators across the state face critical decisions: invest once in durable solutions, or commit to recurring costs with fabric systems that fail.
The Hidden Cost of “Affordable” Fabric Pouches
Fabric pouch vendors lead with low unit prices. But Indiana CFOs know to analyze total cost of ownership:
Year 1: $18/student initial purchase Year 2: $22/student subscription + 25% replacement = $27.50 Year 3: $22/student subscription + 30% replacement = $28.60 Total 3-Year Cost: $74.10 per student
NuKase Total 3-Year Cost: $28 per student (zero subscription, <5% replacement) Your Savings: $46.10 per student = $23,050 for 500-student school
NuKase: One Purchase, Multi-Year Protection
Built to Last Indiana’s Full K-12 Journey Military-grade polycarbonate construction delivers 5+ year lifespan. A student’s 7th-grade NuKase protects their device through graduation—no replacement cycles, no subscription treadmill.
No Ongoing Fees, Ever One purchase. One invoice. Years of phone-free learning. Your budget team will thank you.

Bell-to-Bell Implementation That Works
Morning Arrival: Students develop 5-second routine by week two. Lock phone, head to class, focus on learning. No teacher supervision required.
Instructional Time: Teachers teach without phone policing. Students engage without digital distraction. Administrators don’t mediate device conflicts.
Efficient Dismissal: Handheld unlocking stations at exits ensure smooth, fast retrieval. No bottlenecks. No chaos. No confiscated phones in your office.
Emergency Access: Hoosier-Practical
Indiana schools value common-sense emergency protocols:
- Handheld Detacher Tools: Staff carries portable unlocking device—works anywhere, anytime
- Individual Student Access: Unlock one student for family emergency without affecting others
- Student Possession: Devices stay with students—no liability, no lost phone claims
- Lockdown Compatible: Students maintain possession during secure procedures
Transparent Design = Student Buy-In
Fabric pouches hide phones completely, increasing student anxiety about device safety. NuKase’s transparent polycarbonate provides visual confirmation while hiding screen content—perfect psychology for compliance.
