Kieran Shafritz de Zoysa was on a leave of absence from his exclusive school, Sidwell Friends, where President Obama’s daughter Sasha is a senior. The attack on Easter Sunday left at least 300 people dead, according to Sri Lanka's government. Hundreds more were wounded after a series of eight bomb blasts went off in and around Sri Lanka’s capital.
