Hi Peter
For during the day moon viewing, the third quarter is usually best as it will be on the West side of the sky when the Sun is on the East. However, this doesn't help you because third quarter isn't for another 2 weeks.
It will visible in the afternoon over the next week or so, so if you do it after school or in the last hour or so of school you should be able to see it high in the west as the Sun is getting lower.
