You can also ask:
"How did you arrive to school?"
Arrive means to get somewhere.

好問題
者兩個有點不同。
今天早上你怎麼來學校? (答: 我是騎自行車來的) = How did you get to school today? (answer: I rode my bike.)
你每天怎麼來學校? How do you get to school? (How do you go to school 我們可以理解,但是傳統是說“to get to", 意思是[ 達到 ] )。
"How do you get to school (every day)" uses the present tense, since it describes a continuous or repeated actions.
"How did you get to school" implies the questioner is asking how you came to school today. Since we are asking about today, we can use the past tense, and then need not say "today". Chinese language usually explicitly mentions the time (”你今天早上怎麼來“) but we usually use past tense conjugation of the verb, and usually the time is implied (How did you get here?)
We use "get to" like you use 到, especially for work or school. In spoken english we seldom use “arrive" as a verb in this case. We would use it more in the future tense, i.e. "What time will you arrive" - although you can also say "What time will you get there?" (less formal)
