What is the proper way to say the following in Spanish?
I walk to school (shop, etc).
Ando en la escuela (en la tienda).
or perhaps
Ando a la escuela (a la tienda, etc.).
The question is about the "en" vs "a" with "andar".
Thank you.

¡Hi! =)
It is correct like this:
-Voy andando a la escuela...or...
-Voy caminando a la escuela.
(Caminado and andando are sinonims) With andar is always used "a".
-En, means "in"or "by"...A, means "to".
Voy en coche a la escuela, I go by car to school.
Estoy en Madrid, I´m in Madrid.

This doesn't sound correct. You'd have to say:
Voy a la escuela a pie.
or
Camino a la escuela.
If you still need to use 'andar', go for
Ando a la escuela.
