More details to this question:
Our board approved a 2% raise for eligible employees at the February board meeting. The reviews are now being done (we have a lengthy process) and will be retroactive to 2/27/17. This employee did not like the 2% she was given and after she signed her performance review said she was going to give her notice. She did. Since she is quitting, do we have to give her the raise retroactive to 2/27/17?

If you made an offer to provide a raise and accepted itthen you should honor your promise and avoid any subsequent legal action. Since it's only 2% in for a short period of time until she leaves why would you want to fight her on this.
