Watch: Darryl George gets choked up saying the last six months at school has been lonely

A Texas judge has ruled that a school district did not discriminate against a black high school student when it punished him over his dreadlocks.

Barbers Hill Independent School District suspended Darryl George, 18, last August, saying his hairstyle violated its dress code.

The judge found the Houston-area school did not break a state law banning race-based bias on hair.
