I think the first thing to say in reply to that is "Why do you ask?" - she might be scared of you dying, or of you leaving home like some of her friends' parents may have done, or it might just be her weird way of saying "see you after school". She might have picked it up from TV and just be repeating it.

So find out why she is asking, then you can work through her fears (if she has any) with her.

Hope that helps!
