PROTEx Folio
The PROTEx Folio makes your iPad easier to use and hold than ever before. In fact, we believe it's the easiest iPad case to hold. Once your hand is inserted into Higher Ground's exclusive X-strap system, it actually holds your hand for you! Unlike most cases, the iPad is set in from the edges, so the case takes the knocks, not your device. Convenient sound channels redirect the iPad's audio to the front, where it belongs. The multi-position stand provides typing or viewing angles. ID and asset tag windows help to quickly identify the owner. The hard cover is cleanable and non-slip, staying put where you want it.
This hard case comes in two models that fit the iPad Air 1 and 5th and 6th generation iPads as well as the iPad Pro 9.7. It provides superior protection with its non-slip TPU material, which is lightweight and easy to clean. The stand not only makes this iPad hard cover versatile in the classroom, but it also doubles as a fold-over screen protector to keep the glass safe and protected from dirt and scratches when you’re storing the devices.
PROTEx cases are also great with classroom carts and provide easy access to charging ports.

Surfing The Web
Though much of Higher Ground's gear is designed for couch surfing, you won't find neoprene here. The soft, spongy material is great for wetsuits however neoprene is less desirable when it comes to drop or shock protection for your laptop. The Flak Jacket's polyurethane foam provides superior protection.
Protective Armor

The popularity of the iPad in today's K-12 schools creates the need for reliable, protective solutions. Students do not always treat their devices with care, which can lead to significant repair and replacement costs for school districts. Higher Ground offers an assortment of high-quality iPad cases for students that will safeguard your investment in technology and reduce your district's expenses.
Higher Ground is a design-based company that develops protective solutions strictly for the education market. Its founders are a college educator and his former student, both of whom bring a wealth of firsthand experience to the design process. All products consist of superior materials and benefit from more than 16 years of manufacturing expertise. They also undergo meticulous testing to ensure they can withstand the drops and mishandling that come with student use.
Higher Ground iPad cases for education do more than protect technology. They also provide enhanced accessibility and functionality that make devices easier to use. Consequently, HG products make a valuable contribution to the learning process.
iPads are light and easy to handle — an essential benefit for younger students due to their smaller hands. However, the thinner design and lightweight construction increase the devices' vulnerability. A durable iPad case for schools from Higher Ground offers a cost-effective solution. By cushioning the fall, it can reduce glass breakage by as much as 85-90 percent. A protective iPad case for schools will also minimize learning disruptions resulting from broken devices.
Higher Ground's PROTEx line of iPad cases for education are designed to be the easiest iPad cases to hold. The PROTEx includes a specially designed silicone X-strap on the back that ensures a comfortable, secure grip in a horizontal or vertical orientation. Because the strap practically holds your hand for you, it makes it almost impossible to drop. The ergonomic, bumper perimeter is also easier to grip for hands of all sizes.
Solid, TPU construction makes a PROTEx the perfect iPad bumper case for kids. The lightweight yet rugged thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) material absorbs shock and offers excellent resistance to wear and tear. A raised bevel on the screen side provides breakage protection during face-first drops. All models include sound channels that redirect audio to the front for an improved listening experience. PROTEx is offered in two configurations based on your needs. One as a folio-style with cover and stand and the other without.
As with all Higher Ground products, these protective iPad cases for schools come with a lifetime warranty for your protection and peace of mind. The 30-day return policy allows for risk-free purchasing, while the innovative "1/2 price replacement program" makes case upgrades extremely affordable.
The Higher Ground team includes courteous, professional customer service representatives who will be happy to assist you. They'll answer all your questions and provide additional product information as needed. Feel free to contact us to receive product samples and a no-obligation quote for any of our iPad cases for students.
