Mass shootings yes, school shootings specifically no.
"There have been more than 488 mass shootings across the US so far in 2024, according to the Gun Violence Archive, which defines a mass shooting as an incident in which four or more people are injured or killed. Their figures include shootings that happen in homes and in public places.
For each of the last four years there have been more than 600 mass shootings - almost two a day on average. "
The definition for a mass shooting is an “incident in which four or more people were killed or injured”.
I don’t think it’s quite 1-2/day. But for a tiny bit of context there was one at a high school in Dallas either yesterday or the day before.

I stand corrected!
With about 600 events to be called mass shootings a year, 1-2 a day is correct.
