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 achievement marks the first time a school within the Davis School District has received the annual award.
The Director's Cup is an award that has been presented annually for 16 years. Designed by the UIAAA, the award is intended to recognize comprehensive school excellence across three specific categories.
Athletics and academics each account for 40% of the total score. The athletics portion is calculated based on a school team's final finishing position in official Utah High School Activities Association State Tournaments, while the academics portion is based on the cumulative overall GPA of varsity athletic teams. The remaining 20% of the score is determined by 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.
