Hi, your writing and your grammar are pretty good, but your essay is very disorganized. I had a lot of trouble following what you were trying to say. Your essay never really answers the question or even addresses the question until your very last sentence. You should have an introduction saying that extra-curricular activities are very popular in school. Then either say they should be kept or should be eliminated. Then give two paragraphs supporting either the retention of these activities or their elimination. Then give a short summary restating your thesis and your main points. Sorry to be so blunt, but your writing is actually quite good, so it is frustrating because I don't know what you are trying to teach me.

Should sports classes be sacrificed in High School so students can concentrate on academic subjects?
Nowadays, [the] education[al] process is more expanded[expansive] and easier{what do you mean by easier? it doesn't really make sense to me} than before,{start new sentence} especially, in many schools that their education depends on progressive books, and professionals teachers who perform their dutie in the best and modern ways. {In many schools, the instruction depends of progressive books and professional teachers who perform their duties in the most modern and optimal ways.} Thus, students find [an] appropriate environment to acquire knowledges{knowledge is always singular} and informatios{so is information}, and perform others[extra-curricular] activities at the same time.
We all know that{this might be a little strong - I think college is more important myself - maybe say"It is my belief that"}, [the] high school phase is the most significant period in the students['] lives, for several reasons, {new sentence} firstly, there are people who believe that, in this phase they need scors[scores - although "grades" might be better] that allow them to attend the university. Therefore, they must focus on their subjects, and they put all their efforts on them, and give up all the others activities like playing football and swimming. Secondly, in high school phase, students become teenagers. Undoubtedly, [the] teenagers period is the most dangerous period in people's life[lives], because, in this phase, [the] student moves on from childhood into adulthood, and change his or her genes.{genes don't change - maybe you mean hormonal changes?} Thus, he behaves as a adult man, and commit{s} many mistakes, such as, smoking and dating girls, fighting with his colleagues, because he wonts to confirm his manhood, as a result of all these behaviors he loses his focus on his education. Moreover, damage his scors[scores], and perhaps he loses his future. {I don't understand the point of this paragraph - are you saying these things are more likely to happen without outsides sports and activities? If so, state that explicitly}
But also, we admit, there are students who can perform their school works, and other activities [as well] {new sentence}, there are many factors which make them successful, and achieved[help them achieve] their education goals. For instance, some parents raised their children on depending[to depend] on themselves and do any thing on their own [, without making many mistakes or poor choices] responsobility, but without they commit any mistakes. Thus, they created valid[a strong] generation who accepts the academic life and work out on themselves.{don't understand "work out on themselves"}
To sum up, as I mentioned above, parents play an important role to shape[in shaping] their children's life[lives], and make[in making] a successful generation who full of love and life, and learning love.{"full of a love of life and a love of learning"} If there is time and intelligents{sp} students, why not? we can study and play sport, in this way, we kill two birds by[with] one stone, gain[ing] knowldges{sp} and keep[ing] our bodies fit.
