Updating older IMac

Trying to update my older iMac to newer software, and wondering how I got about it. I'm guessing one OS upgrade at a time?

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.12

that iMac can run high sierra. and according to the apple support page you can upgrade directly there from OS X 10.9.5. click here> macOS High Sierra 10.13


just to add, you should make a backup before proceeding incase something goes wrong during the upgrade.
