The former Pembroke High School, also known as the Indian Education Resource Center, is a historic high school building located at Pembroke, Robeson County, North Carolina. It was designed and built by the Public Works Administration in 1939. It is a one-story, brick building consisting of a central entrance pavilion and auditorium, with flanking classroom wings. The building was renovated in late 1992. The building originally housed a high school for Native American students of the Lumbee tribe.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[1]
