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.

My sister could do my Dad's really well and my parents would tell her to do both our forms because they couldn't be bothered

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.
