Siler City High School, also known as the Paul Braxton School, is a historic high school building located at Siler City, Chatham County, North Carolina. It was built in 1922, and is a two-story, "T"-shaped, five-bay school building with streamlined Art Deco design elements. It has a two-story-high auditorium wing. Also on the property are the contributing mid-1930s one-story brick woodworking shop building which now serves as a community center, a 1 1/2-story frame gymnasium begun in 1930, and an early 1930s dirt baseball field which was initially a football field.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
