Lumpkin County Fire Chief Ed Eggert said the fire was reported around 2:00 a.m. Thursday at Hidden Lake Academy.
Firefighters from five Lumpkin County Stations along with assistance from Dawson County and the Army Ranger Camp north of Dahlonega battled the blaze.
Eggert said the main classroom building was destroyed, but they were able to save other buildings that were attached to the classrooms or nearby.
According to the fire chief the cause of the blaze is unknown and the state fire marshal's office has been called in to investigate.
Mike Smith Director of Operation for the school said they have space to relocate the classrooms. Smith said students were scheduled to be off next week and they will use that time to set up the classroom areas. Classes at the school are held year round.
