On Friday, 5/28/21, Greater New Bedford Regional Vocatioal Technical High School held an AMC Hollywood Night at AMC in Dartmouth for the Class of 2021 instead of a prom. Due to CDC guidelines and restrictions, a traditional prom would not be feasible due to the size of the senior class. Students voted on an AMC Hollywood Night rather than a prom.
