The Nebraska Department of Transportation Buckle Up Phone Down Cup recognizes high schools having the most successful interscholastic activities programs in the state for that year. The divisions of competition include a Girls Division, a Boys Division, and an All-School Division. Schools in each division are divided into four classes, (A, B, C, and D) determined each activities year, based on enrollment.
Three simultaneous contests will take place during the year. The Girls Division and Boys Division competitions, in each class, will feature schools earning points from their respective athletic activities and in the case of coed schools, sharing the fine arts activities’ points equally. The All-School Division contest will include all activities in which each high school participates.
This awards program began in the fall of 2006 with the Nebraska Department of Transportation becoming the title sponsor in 2023. The Buckle Up Phone Down Cup awards are distinctive highquality silver cups and will become the property of the winning schools each year.
