The Roswell North Elementary Foundation was formed in 2009 to enrich and support the academic experience of the students at Roswell North Elementary School.

The Foundation annually funds all the costs of the Licata Science Lab, one of only two elementary school-level science labs in North Fulton County as well as additional programs, improvements, or initiatives consistent with the school’s strategic plan.
