Will i be able to go back to school after arthroscopic surgery?

Yes: Within 2-3 days, the swelling from a knee arthroscopy should be under control and allow one to return to school, likely with crutches. Periodic ice and elevation of the leg will still be necessary, as well as progressive gentle range of motion exercises.
