You can't. From a good article:
Note also doesn't respond to the Windows 10 Spelling feature. However, OneNote doesn't even have options to control spelling.
Another reason why I've given up on MS completely.
UPDATE: This has been changed in newer version. See this answer
I finally managed to get rid of this maddeningly annoying difficulty, i.e. not being able to disable proofing in the OneNote app for Windows 10, simply by updating the app.
The new version lets you "Hide spelling errors" under Settings → Options.
You can update OneNote via the Windows App Store.
