Mrs. Amber Steele, Principal of Broadview Elementary
I am beyond excited to step into the role of Principal at Broadview Elementary and officially call myself an Eagle! It is truly an honor to join such a dedicated team of educators and support staff who have built the strong reputation and culture that Broadview is known for.
Family Life
I am proud to call Franklin County home. My husband, Brandon Steele, and I were both born and raised in this wonderful community. Together, we are raising our two energetic and kind-hearted boys—Memphis (6) and Nash (4). As a family, we love spending time outdoors and playing a variety of sports. Our deep roots in Franklin County fuel my commitment to making our schools the best they can be for every child and family.

Later, I transitioned into district-wide Literacy Coaching, supporting K–8 educators in instructional best practices and professional development. Most recently, I coordinated summer school programs at Rock Creek and North Lake Elementary Schools, overseeing staff, instruction, and community partnerships to promote student growth and engagement.
