We don’t have school on the Day of Silence. Does that mean I can’t participate?
Your school district may not have classes on the National Day of Silence, but that doesn’t mean you can’t participate. We encourage everyone to organize their Day of Silence events on a day that works best for their school and community. Schedule your DOS activities on another day or week. You can also collaborate with other schools, GSAs and students in your area to hold your DOS on the same day so you can generate local interest.

It seems like not having school on that day would be more oppressing, it's like saying "You wanna support gays? No education!"
I had to do this my senior year in high school, because we happened to be on Easter break that week, and it worked out wonderfully. We had an even bigger participation than we would have had on the "official" day. So even if you don't have school that day, just make your own day!
