Hi Hunter,
Khan Academy is based around the idea of mastery, rather than grades. Because most schools want grades, they've tried to work with teachers and schools to allow teachers to receive grades from assignments, but mastery still remains the true goal.
It sounds like you've mastered 56% of Algebra 2. Great job! You have 44% of the course remaining, and there's so much out there to learn.
However, mastery in KA and grades in class do not correlate. You need to talk to your teacher to find out which assignments on KA and which assignments in class are used to calculate your grade. If you're doing hybrid or distance learning, it might take a while to find it, but your teacher should be able to help.
Good luck and keep learning!

Hi Hunter,
Khan Academy doesn't assign "grades", so the percentage that you see in the course only represents the percentage of the skills in the course that you have "mastered".
For more information about the Mastery System, I suggest looking at this article.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any additional questions!

Hunter,
You need to check with your teacher. We can't tell you if participation in zoom or other class counts. None of us know if you do anything other than Khan exercises. We don't know if your teacher only takes the first attempt at an exercise or will accept the highest attempt. We don't know how much weight is given to exercises versus quizzes versus participation versus tests, or even whether quizzes and tests are lumped into one category or separated. These all vary between teachers.
If you're looking for scores on specific assignments, go to your dashboard, then click assignments on the left. When it opens, it'll show current assignments. You have the option to look at your past assignments as well, and you can see the scores you earned on any particular assignment.
But you NEED to talk to your teacher.
