Start by practicing at home in a mirror. Ask a girlfriend that you are comfortable being silly in front of to help you out and show you some of her moves.
find your rhythm. Listen to the song you are playing. In every song there are many rhythms. Pick one, and start to move back and forth in the rhythm. Nothing fancy, start by stepping from side to side with the music.
Practice a few moves in the mirror. Maybe something you've seen in music videos. If you know what something looks like then you don't wonder if what you're doing looks stupid.
Then, once you get to the dance, watch the people dancing around you. If you see a move that looks easy enough, try it. Dancing with a group of friends is great because there's not so much attention on you, and you can copy off of what your friends do. If things are still the way they were when I went to school dances, we mostly danced with our friends for fast songs and with the guys for the slow ones. And that was basically putting your arms around the guy and swaying back in forth to the rhythm. You can handle that.
Remember, be confident. You're at a school dance, not american idol. If you feel like you are messing up, then do something silly and be the first to laugh about it. People can sense if you feel akward or nervous. Chances are most of the other people dancing around you feel nervous too, and they're not dancing much better either. Everyone is there to have fun, so relax and enjoy the music.
Good Luck,

Honestly, the worst thing you can do is be overly concerned with how you look and how people will think about your dancing. It's hard to find any basic dance moves on TV. But, you really just need to feel the music. Put on some of the music that you think they might play and dance in front of a full lenght mirror. Use your best judgement as to what moves look the most natural and cool. If you have a friend that is a good dancer ask her to show you a few moves. It's difficult to explain dancing in words, because it best explained visually.
