Oct 5, 2024, 12:00 AM
A federal judge has denied a request by a Black high school student in Texas to return to school without fear of his previous punishment over his hairstyle resuming. The student's lawyers argued that the court order would have allowed him to attend classes without facing punishment for his hairstyle. The student, who was disciplined by the school for his hairstyle, sought legal intervention to prevent further disciplinary actions. The judge's decision means the student may continue to face consequences imposed by the school's hair policy.
