The kanji 校 is a 形声文字 (keisei moji), a phono-semantic compound character. It is composed of two parts: 木 (ki), meaning "tree" or "wood," and 交 (kō), which originally meant "to cross" or "to exchange." The combination suggests a place where people meet and "exchange" ideas, often in a setting with trees or wooden structures, such as early schools. The "交" component also lends its phonetic value, influencing the コウ (kō) reading.
