Layton High School has been recognized with the Utah Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (UIAAA) 6A Director's Cup for the 2025-2026 school year, according to an October 7 report from the Davis School District.
This marks the first time a school within the Davis School District has received the annual award, which has been presented for 16 years.
The Director's Cup is designed by the UIAAA to recognize comprehensive school excellence across three specific categories.
Athletics accounts for 40% of the score and is calculated by a school team's final finishing position in official Utah High School Activities Association State Tournaments. Academics also accounts for 40% of the award, based on the cumulative overall GPA of varsity athletic teams. The remaining 20% is based on sportsmanship and leadership, which is evaluated through a school's active participation in state-sponsored student-leadership and sportsmanship initiatives.
Layton High School Athletic Director Brian Berrong stated that the award demonstrates appreciation for the collective efforts of the school community, noting that everyone made a difference.
