Mr. Morton was the Principal of the Ewen High School. He had a tendency to call Carrie "Cassie" or mispronounce her last name as "Wright". He supported Miss Desjardin in the punishment regarding the shower incident.

Mr. Morton was played by Barry Shabaka Henley in Carrie. He was the principal of Ewen High School.

He has a tendency to forget names. He is a man of hands-off policy, who has a tendency to cave in, especially when it comes to people like Chris Hargensen´s father. It is Ms. Desjardin who puts up a fight and forces her father to cave in regarding Chris' punishment.

At the prom, he didn't do anything regarding Carrie's horrible "prank". Later, he tried to calm people down after Carrie´s telekinetic shockwave, but to no avail. He was run over by the panicked participants of the prom. However, it is also thought by most to have been killed at the Black Prom when Carrie electrocuted the wet gym floor.
