We have officially entered the dog days of Summer 2020! Unfortunately, with a pandemic going on, many summer activities have had to be canceled. However, streaming services like Netflix and Hulu have been providing plenty of new and old content as a means of pastime and enjoyment.

There are plenty of flicks available on both, but Netflix does have some newer teen movies either already on the service or still upcoming! If you don’t know where to look on your Netflix or are simply looking for some streaming suggestions, here are some interesting teen movies to consider:
