The first word of Hogwarts motto is DRAGO not DRACO as in Malfoy DRAGO means

Dragon.

Sherrie here:

No, it's "Draco", and it does mean "dragon".  However, I don't think it's 
referring to Ferretboy.  I've always read it in a more...metaphorical way, as in 
"Don't play with what you don't understand."  But that's just me.
