Yes. Because school admins and teachers regularly compare signatures of documents with other previously signed documents.
My school used enrollment forms to compare the signature. Vice principals had little to do with their time but punish kids.
Which is why I learned how for forge both parents signatures by the time I was out of 2nd grade. One missed field trip because my parents couldn't be bothered to sign the form was enough.
Started out tracing them on a thin sheet of paper. Took about a months until I could do it easily freehand. I had the best mimic out of all of my siblings and would often sign their's as well.
Some with bad priorities definitely did.
Missed a field trip and got a couple detentions for doing just this.
It was for practice forms.. for band. I was the first chair trombone, I didn't practice, my parents didn't care.
Now, I should have been practicing, but that's another point.
Hey funny story related to this. My father died when i was six. (Not the funny part). In high school i started signing early dismissal letters with my own name and the school never questioned it.
Possibly, they noticed and were good enough people that realized it’s not the end of the world.
Wish I thought about that before I learned dark necromancy to reanimate my father's corpse so he could sign my field trip forms.
I definitely did this throughout high school. My dad once asked why they don't do report cards anymore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is so wholesome in a weird way
Yeah. I want to be this parent
A nice refresh on the "give a man a fish" saying 😂
In our house, the policy was I (mom) used my real signature, kids forged their dad's signature when needed. So, my signature was mine but his signature was always forged.
Because teachers can't tell a first grader's attempt at a signature from an adult's.
high school
Reading comprehension isn’t their strong suit. They’re still in first grade, you see
This says high school, but honestly probably not as long as they don't try too hard. My signiture is some squiggles with a line and dot thrown in. A first grader might actually try though, then it could be suspicious.
