Laptop Bags
Your charging cart is universal. Your protective case should be too.
DataKeeper Cart CS is designed specifically for schools that need dependable, always-on protection without sacrificing charging cart compatibility. Its universal design fits virtually all 11-inch Chromebooks and compact laptops while sliding easily into charging cart slots 1.25" wide or larger—making device deployments, refreshes, and replacements simpler than ever.
Wrapped in our CleanShell™ exterior, DataKeeper Cart CS resists dirt, stains, moisture, and everyday wear while wiping clean with ease. Inside, lightweight compression-molded EVA construction, reinforced offset edges, and secure corner straps work together to help absorb everyday bumps and accidental drops from the classroom to the cart—and everywhere in between.
Designed to stay on the device throughout the school day, DataKeeper Cart CS provides continuous protection while allowing full access to charging ports, buttons, and connections. Clear upper corner straps maximize screen visibility, while the non-slip interior securely holds the device in place without interfering with daily use.
An integrated ID window simplifies asset management, while the slim profile ensures compatibility with most charging carts, lockers, backpacks, and desks. Because its universal design adapts to multiple device generations, DataKeeper Cart CS helps reduce replacement costs, minimize waste, and simplify technology management for years to come.

Laptop Bags for Schools
Schools make a major investment in laptops for their pupils. Failing to protect them adequately creates additional repair and replacement costs. A high-quality laptop bag for students provides a cost-effective solution for safeguarding this valuable technology and lengthening its lifespan. As the original education-focused case manufacturer, Higher Ground offers a variety of rugged products that will minimize the risk of laptop damage.
Why Move to Higher Ground?
Founded in 2003 by a college educator and his former student, Higher Ground continues to set the standard for the industry. The company concentrates on developing cases and bags for schools that combine maximum drop protection with functionality. While there have been many copycat cases over the years, most of these products are designed for the consumer market. Higher Ground bags deliver targeted solutions that address the unique challenges that school districts face.
Higher Ground backs every protective laptop bag with a broad assortment of value-added services, such as:
- A 30-day free trial that allows school districts to buy without risk
- A lifetime guarantee that covers defects in materials and manufacturing
- A unique 1/2-off replacement program, which makes upgrading to new bags extremely affordable
- Top-notch customer service that competitors cannot match
- Availability of free samples, which enables school districts to try out a case before purchasing
How Do I Protect School Laptops?
School districts may supply their students with laptops at any grade level in the K-12 spectrum, but elementary school students don't use their devices in the same way as their older counterparts. With this fact in mind, Higher Ground produces a variety of durable laptop bags that serve the needs of every student.
Models such as the Shuttle and Datakeeper feature the smaller size and work-in-bag functionality that's best for younger pupils. High school students can benefit from the Flak Jacket 3.0, with its slim, lightweight design and built-in storage pocket for carrying laptop accessories, notebooks, papers and school supplies.
Every laptop bag for education will provide exceptional drop protection that maximizes the lifespan of the device and reduces repair and replacement costs.
About Higher Ground K-12 Laptop Bags
Higher Ground protective laptop bags provide school districts and their students with a host of features and benefits that set them apart from competing models.
Some of these features include:
- EVA construction that consists of the same foam used in running shoes and athletic pads to cushion a fall
- Hydrophobic coating that repels water and dirt, keeping them away from the bag contents
- Reinforced corners and extended edges that provide additional drop protection
- Up to an 85-90 percent reduction in screen breakage for many districts
- Meticulous testing that ensures each bag meets the highest quality, performance and longevity standards
