D. Nonexclusive and non-rival.
The provision of an education in public school is (D) Nonexclusive and non-rival. Public school is nonexclusive (also know as non-excludable) because any student can attend without needing to pay for it. Additionally, it is non-rival because one student attending does not prevent another student from attending since public schools must accept all students. Therefore, public schools are a public good.
