Definition
返校 means 'to return to school after a break' (e.g., after vacation). It's a separable verb (离合词): the verb 返 and the object 校 can split when inserting aspect, duration, or measure words — for example, 返了一次校 ('returned to school once'). The person returning is the subject; you don't add an object after 返校.
v.o.
to return to school (after a vacation or break)
