GENOA, Nebraska — Dazhen Lasley chose to come to the Genoa boarding school Tuesday.
His great grandfather Henry wasn’t given a choice to come to the school nearly a hundred years ago.
Dazhen found evidence of his great grandfather’s time spent at the former boarding school when he found his relative’s name carved into a desk.
“It’s really meaningful to me,” said the 18-year-old.
