There is a chapter called The Fallacy of Public Goods in Hans Hoppe's book Economics and Ethics of Private Property that dives deep in this subject. Great read.
If the schools are not crowded then yes. A highly crowded public school would then become rivalrous, since my being there affects the quality of the education that other students receive. Of course, the extents and where exactly it becomes "rivalrous" is mostly semantics.
Education is not a public good. It both rival and excludable. But we provide public elementary and secondary education because it has positive externalities.
