Damages and tech fees are 2 different types of invoices.  Tech Fees did not roll up to the next school.  Damages would have.  Most of the damages are invoiced at the end of the school year so the previous school wouldn't have had time to collect them.  We can take a look and separate tech fee from damages.

After just a little digging:
23-24 Tech Fees $1590 minus (4 MCKinney Vento, 1 LI, and a homebound = $180.) = $1410 in unpaid 23-24 Tech Fees.  (Spreadsheet attached)
Damage invoices $ 5707.37 of which $3171.45 are 9th graders (but $600 is one 9th last year that didn't return last year's computer) and the majority is from missing chargers. (spreadsheet attached)
We can look at the 9th grade invoices and determine the previous school.

Payment plans should be offered.
Extracurricular activities can be limited until invoices are paid.

Every school has a similar situation.

Here is some quick data about the situation. We have $4,480 in damages/tech fees. 

67 students w/ $30 tech fee = 4% of our students. 

$4,480 in damages/fees = 1. $3,050.31 inherited = 68% of our fees
                                          2. $1,891.45 from 9th graders only = 41% of our fees. 
                                          3. $1,040.45 from 3rd Creek Middle School.

If we are not inherited fees from MS then we would be in a better situation. The idea of HS holding a diploma to get fees paid could as easy be implemented in the MS. If your  fee is not paid in MS or even Elem then  you don't participate in their promotion day.

Good Morning Mr. Sloan, 

My name is Carla Webster and I am the Outreach and Benevolence Director at The Cove Church in Mooresville. 
Are you aware that there are over 60 kids at South Iredell HS who cannot afford to pay their tech fees. It is my understanding that the total cost is $4,480.00. It has been six weeks now and these children are falling behind at school. The school counselors are reaching out to local churches trying to get support for these children. We are willing to support in some capacity but my question to you is what can the board do to help? Is it possible to waive the fees associated with kids who come from lower income families? This issue is of urgency as these kids are suffering because of this situation.
Thank you for your time and consideration. 

Serving Him, 

Carla Webster 
Outreach and Benevolence Director
