Here's what happened: The teacher, who has not been named, read aloud from three books as part of a "literacy initiative" at Schofield Middle School in Aiken County, S.C. One of the books was Ender's Game, and something about the reading prompted the student and his parent to complain to the school district and contact police, claiming the material from the reading was "pornographic." The teacher has since been placed on administrative leave while school officials investigate the situation.

No criminal charges have been filed against the teacher, but school officials are looking into whether he violated school policy by reading the book without first submitting it to administrators for review.
