With the shift to larger units of administration in Ontario, there is a need for the realization of a working relationship between the two roles of administrator and trustee, based on the strengths of each. The strength of the administrator is in his skills as manager and coordinator and communicator and in his ability to communicate on a technical level with the centers of power in education, namely, the Ministry of Education and the professional staffs. The strength of the trustee is in his position of elected representative of the community, as a translator of the community needs, as the ultimate payer of the bills. The point of articulation, therefore, is in the relationship between trustees and administrators. (Author)
