My name is Chris Coppicus and I am the Director of Bands. I am entering my 10th year here at Royalton and my 19th year of teaching. I am a 2000 graduate of Fridley High School. I went on to get my B.A. in Music Education from The College of St. Scholastica in Duluth, and I completed my Masters of Music in Instrumental Conducting in 2012 from St. Cloud State University.
My wife Katy and I have two wonderful children Sophia (8th Grade) and Owen (4th Grade). We also have a Cocker Spaniel Puppy named Max. We have lived in Rice for the last 17 years.
As you will find out about me I love to be out on the water boating, tubing, and water skiing, but most of all I love to make music.
