Mr. Morris

John Morris (aka Mr. Morris) was the janitor for Lakewood Elementary School for the first seven seasons of Arthur. In "April 9th", the school was damaged by a fire and Mr. Morris broke his leg. Because of his leg, he retired and moved to New Mexico, onto his daughter's ranch. Though he moved in Season 7, he made a couple of non-speaking appearances in episodes like "Francine's Pilfered Paper." In the Postcards from Buster episode "Alien Adventure" he appears when Buster visits Roswell, New Mexico. He appears in a flashback in the Postcards From Buster episode "Coming Together." The flashback reused a part of "April 9th," when Buster goes to visit him in the hospital.

In "Strangers on a Train," Mr. Morris is seen in a green uniform, appearing to be working as a janitor for the train station, implying that he worked there at some point.

It is said that he used to be a dog groomer, he can speak Portuguese, and he likes to play his accordion named Beatrice.
