The research design employed path analysis followed by the SITOREM method. The research sample consisted of 198 certified private junior high school principals selected using Multistage Random Sampling. The research instrument was a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The data analysis technique used in this quantitative research comprised descriptive statistical analysis, testing of data analysis requirements, inferential statistical analysis, regression analysis, and hypothesis testing. The research findings indicated that: (1) the hypothesis of Emotional Intelligence (X1) on principal performance (Y) resulted in a path coefficient of 0.125, suggesting a direct positive effect; (2) the hypothesis of work discipline (X2) on principal performance (Y) obtained a path coefficient of 0.271, indicating a direct positive effect; (3) there was an indirect effect of emotional intelligence and work discipline on principal performance, with a path coefficient of 0.046 < 0.125. In conclusion, this research revealed a positive relationship between emotional intelligence, work discipline, and the performance of school principals in Indonesia.
