IDAHO FALLS — The class of 2020 and student-athletes who didn’t get to participate in their spring sports were recognized in an unusual way Friday evening.

Schools across the state took part in the nationwide campaign “Be the Light.” Idaho high schools were encouraged to participate in #BeTheLightId by turning on their stadium lights Friday to honor them.

The stadium lights turned on at 8:20 p.m. for 20 minutes. Cars were encouraged to honk their horns to show their support.
