Yes, this is correct.

There are two shoulder blades, therefore, "scapula" would be just one shoulder blade. "Scapulae" would be the plural word for both shoulder blades.

The scapulae connects to the collar bone (clavicle) at the acromioclavicular joint (aka AC joint) The acromion is a protruding part of the scapulae bone.
