In 1916 a concrete building with six class rooms and an auditorium was constructed at a cost of $7,980.  In 1925 a large brick building was constructed a cost of $40,000.  It contained a large auditorium, 13 class rooms, a library and an office room.  A great portion of its 14.0 acres is located approximately one mile away form the building on what is better known as the Pembroke Park or Ball Field.  In 1954 a cafeteria was added, and at about the same time tow rooms of the cinderblock construction were built ( not connected to the other building) "to use for 5 years".  Because of the addition of kindergarten, it was necessary to add tow relocated classroom units in 1970 and another in 1975.  These three units had a kindergarten capacity of 60 children.  This made the total capacity of Pembroke Elementary School 510 students.  Pembroke Elementary School was closed at the end of the 1981-82 school year.
