prepositions - Arrive to or arrive at?


I was looking on the internet but really haven't found anything definite on this. I was writing a letter for IELTS practice and I came with this phrase:



"When I arrived to the school I really did not know what to expect.".




I'm doubtful about whether the "to" is well placed there.


I think the following option with "at" instead of "to" sounds better as in:



"When I arrived at the school I really did not know what to expect."



but I'm not sure if those two are interchangeable in this particular example.
