In a previous life, I've used Finale for such notations, but if you
(probably) can't carry a keyboard around to class, it may not be
practical, and you're still using nonintuitive typing to represent the
musical notation. You might as well try to memorize the keys, etc. for
the Bach font.
There are some music templates here:

which include treble/bass/both staffs. If you can't swing a Tablet PC,
then maybe a small external digitizing tablet from Wacom might be
practical. You can still "write" on the external tablet, and have the
writing appear on the staffs in OneNote.
