Go to school or go to the school?

Hi. Is this correct? Thank you in advance.

(plumber calling the person who left a message in school)
Hi, Yes, this is the plumber you called. As to the time, I'm kind of busy right now. Can I go to the school at 3?

'Go to school' is for the purpose of attending classes there. 'Go to the school' is to go to the building. This is the form that the plumber would use.
