Following back the chain of links o the original newspaper story [1], there appear to be three books involved. Only "Ender's Game" is named. Based on the account in the complaint, one of the phrases in question certainly does not come from Ender's Game, and refers to "prostitutes having their faces covered with ejaculat[e].' [2]
The district apparently requires an (apparently simple) administrative review of material beyond the prescribed curriculum, which was not done in this case.
So, it may be that EG was the least sinister but most widely known book of the bunch. I, like others here, leap to defend it, but it may not be the actual source of many of the parent's concerns, but included because its inclusion was in violation of the review policy.
From #2:
"According to a news report by local station WRDW, the police incident report in the case claims that the teacher read “pornographic material from the Internet to the students in class. One of the stories was about prostitutes having their faces covered with ejaculation.”
And in #4, OSC says that he's pretty sure it wasn't Ender's Game at all.
The link chain is is kind of ridiculous. There are no additional facts given, the other "articles" are just editorializing what the previous wrote about the facts in the original...and in the process some of the facts become distorted as alttag pointed out.
