Here's a school that has not only organized a Day of Silence, but has created an entire week of tolerance education!
Geneva IL The Gay/Straight Alliance Club at Geneva High School will host several optional activities this week to promote a Week of Tolerance...
Friday - Day of Silence, where Gay/Straight Alliance students will remain silent and not send text messages during the school day. Students will have permission not to speak from their teachers. All students will be encouraged to wear their Gay/Straight Alliance at Geneva High School T-shirts.

I wish my school would do something like this!
My school is having a diversity week. Unfortunately for some reason (likely so fail planning and communication) we couldn't get approval for this week, so we're having it next week with our own DoS next friday
I wish my school could do something like that. I participated today and it was really cool since none of my teachers expected me to talk. Sure I had notecards for: yes, no, thanks, can i go to the restroom, and: how do you ________. Sadly at my bff's school she couldn't participate hardly at all. Her teachers constantly harass her to talk normally since she's really quiet and apparently they weren't smart enough to realize what to day is.
