Yes, you can eventually move up to being a principal, but you’ll have to be an assistant principal first. Of course, the pay for an assistant principal is about the same as a guidance counselor, but you have a lot more responsibilities.

good luck!

Our former guidance counselor is now a principal at a local elementary school, so yes there is room for advancement.
