	56	+	those established by the department will not receive healthy school meals

	73	+	shall convene the advisory group. The advisory group shall collaborate
	74	+	with school districts, the office of state planning and budgeting, and other
	75	+	interested parties to:
	76	+	! Identify ways to maximize federal reimbursements;
	77	+	! Reduce costs of the program;
	78	+	! Review cost-savings options, including minimizing food
	79	+	waste;
