For measuring the distance from your House to school, assuming that it's greater than 1,000 meters, a kilometer would be the most appropriate, because it's generally used to measure long distances.

 

You could however, use smaller units if you want to get more precise results. It wouldn't be uncommon to use meters to measure the distance from your house to the school, if you needed more precise results to calculate more advanced quanities. For example, if you wanted to find out how many steps it took to walk to school, and you knew that you took 3 steps in 1 meter, than you would want to use meters to measure the distance from your house to the school, to get more accurate results on the number of steps you take.
