A report emanating from Busia says that students using the dormitory escaped unhurt as no one was inside the dormitory at the time of the incident.
The fire has since been contained.
In the last two months, the school has been burnt four times allegedly by the community, because of a bad relationship with the school principal.
The Principal is now accusing parents and the neighbouring community of being behind fires at the school.
