Can you please check my grammar and make sure there are no errors. Here it is.

To the girls who have also been sexually harassed. You aren’t alone, you should tell someone and it’s not your fault. I am here for you! I recently found out some of my closest friends were also sexually harassed or even worse raped. I am not going to be silent anymore! These two guys sexually harassed for months. My friends told me to tell an adult so I went to see a counselor. I told her all about it and she said “What you want us to do about it”

I told them, “I don’t know that’s why I came to you for help.” They never did anything about it so they basically got away with it because one was a senior and the other one was a junior. I believe they should have been suspended for their inappropriate behavior ,knowing it made me uncomfortable but still decide to did it again anyway. I believe sexual harassment should be a crime because nobody should feel uncomfortable or not safe. Stay strong, we will get through this together✊

Answer:

To the girls who have also been sexually harassed: You aren’t alone; you should tell someone, and it’s not your fault. I am here for you! I recently found out that some of my closest friends were also sexually harassed or even worse, raped. I am not going to be silent anymore! These two older students sexually harassed me for months. My friends told me to tell an adult, so I went to see a counselor. I told her all about it, and she said, “What you want us to do about it?”

I told her, “I don’t know. That’s why I came to you for help.” The school never did anything about it, so the guys got away with it because one was a senior, and the other was a junior. I believe they should have been suspended for their inappropriate behavior, knowing it made me uncomfortable but still deciding to do it again anyway. I believe sexual harassment should be a crime because nobody should feel uncomfortable or unsafe. Stay strong. We will get through this together.

Explanation: Well said! I hope it makes a difference and improves the lives of the students at your school.

I made a few minor corrections-- mostly to punctuation. There are a few wording changes.

Where I live, the school officials must take action when a student reports sexual harassment. If you tell the perpetrators to stop, and they continue to harass you, it is also a form of bullying. If the counselor won't help, toll a dean, an assistant principal, or a trusted teacher.

Answer:

here is how I would write this

Step-by-step explanation:

To the girls who have been sexually harassed, you are not alone. You should be able to tell someone about what happened to you and understand that it is not your fault. I am here for you. Recently, I discovered that some of my closest friends were sexually harassed, or even worse, raped. I am not going to be silent anymore! Two men sexually harassed me for several months. My friends had told me to tell an adult, so I went to speak to a counselor. I told her all about it and she said, “What you want us to do about it?”

I told her, “I don’t know, that’s why I came to you for help.” The school didn't do anything about it, so the two men ultimately got away with it. One man was a senior, and the other a junior. I believe that they should have been suspended for their inappropriate behavior. They knew it made me uncomfortable but still decided to do it anyway. It is my belief that sexual harassment is a crime, because nobody should feel uncomfortable or unsafe. My advice to you is, stay strong, we will get through this together.✊
