The state board approved a proposal in August to increase graduation requirements to help Idaho students compete against college applicants from other states.

If approved by the Idaho Legislature, all high school students would be required to take three years of math and science. Now, the state requires only two years in either subject. The state also would require students to take at least one math class in their senior year.

Apparently the subject who started the fire tried to light some old wooden pallets in order to make some coals for a barbecue, fire Captain David Freeman said.

“This wouldn’t have happened had it not been for a combination of the palates being so old and dry and the dry and windy weather that evening,” Freeman said. According to Freeman’s report, the fire quickly spread to cover an area approximately 150 feet by 250 feet.
