Carrie traveled from Star, NC which is 3 hours from Jefferson, NC.
The First Lady also praised Mountain View’s Assistant Principal Cynthia Harless for her work at the school in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. In a moment that earned a lot of applause from the students, she brought Cynthia up and gave her a hug.

BACKGROUND:
NVIDIA Corporation
NVIDIA is an American multinational technology company known for designing graphics processing units (GPUs) and advancing AI computing. Founded in 1993 by Jensen Huang, Chris Malachowsky, and Curtis Priem, the company grew from a video game GPU developer into a global leader in high-performance computing, AI, data centers, autonomous vehicles, and industrial applications.
Note: As part of the “Pledge to Americas’ Youth: Investing in Education ,” NVIDIA announced a commitment valued at $25 million over 5 years to developing K-12 AI skills and training through grants, infrastructure donations, and developing training programs to equip the next generation with skills to thrive in the age of AI.
StudyFetch
StudyFetch is an AI-powered learning platform that transforms educational materials into personalized, interactive study tools. It allows students to upload PDFs, PowerPoints, lecture notes, YouTube videos, and content from platforms like Canvas, Quizlet, and Google Docs. The platform then converts these materials into flashcards, quizzes, practice tests, and AI-generated notes, making studying more efficient and organized.
NVIDIA and StudyFetch Commitments
NVIDIA will provide StudyFetch 4-year subscription licenses for 1,500 students in Ashe County School District; and 100 Jetson Nano Developer Kits (Kit) to MVES and Ashe County Schools.
The Kit is a small, low-power, agentic-ready AI computer and platform designed to let students run AI workloads at the “edge” on local devices. A common use is powering small, autonomous robots by processing data locally on the robot rather than relying on a remote cloud server.
Study Fetch robotics systems typically provide robotic kits and platforms for education research. Connecting the two involves both hardware interfacing and software integration. It delivers professional-grade compute, open generative AI model support, and a global developer community.
FLOTUS full remarks:
Hello everyone and thank you for welcoming me back to North Carolina. It’s such an honor to meet the inspirational people from Ashe County and Mountain View Elementary School. I am so proud of you all.
To Dr. Cox, Mr. Graybeal, educators, students, administrators, and the brave families of Mountain View, thank you for welcoming me here today. Your story is incredible.
