How do you get over the anxiety of letting people know you’re Jewish (taking a day off work or class for a holiday)?

It’s not like I live in a hellhole or something, at least my area of America is fine, but it just feels like “outing” myself. I don’t know what I’m afraid of besides judgment or something, even if I shouldn’t care. I also feel guilty for not observing the holiday the “right way”. Family and friend pressure also plays into this. I’m also afraid of missing class instruction and in assignments. The class in question is a GE, but I didn’t skip it for RH due to getting an exam back. Pretty inconsistent, right? I can’t decide what to do, and it’s driving me crazy.
