Liz Morrison is the Head of School at Morristown Beard School.

She came to MBS from Antilles School, an independent, coeducational college preparatory school in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, where she has served as Head of School since 2016. She brings more than three decades of experience in independent school education, having served as Assistant Head of School at the Millbrook School in Millbrook, New York before joining Antilles School.

At the Millbrook School, she held positions as Dean of Students, Academic Dean, and Director of College Counseling. Earlier in her career, Liz served as a math teacher and Chair of the Math Department at Oakwood Friends. More recently, Liz was inducted into the Headmasters Association, a highly prestigious association of only 100 members.

A graduate of The Bryn Mawr School, Liz holds a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland and a Master of Science in Education from the University of Pennsylvania. Throughout the search process, Liz's supervisors and colleagues were uniform in their praise for her professionalism, work ethic, communications, and team-building skills, along with her business and curriculum development acumen.

On a more personal level, Liz grew up in Baltimore, Maryland. She was a proud member of the 1986 University of Maryland NCAA Division I National Champion Women's Lacrosse team. She continues her connection to lacrosse as an assistant coach of the girls lacrosse team here at MBS. Liz has a son and daughter in their twenties, along with two adult stepchildren. Her husband Tom is a corporate pilot, and they live near to MBS.
