Kreamer Street Elementary School physical education teacher Kerry Hogan has been awarded the Suffolk Zone Amazing Person Award.
Hogan earned the distinction for making exceptional contributions to her profession.
“It is an honor and privilege to be nominated for this award, but the smiles seen, gratitude heard and relationships developed with the students are the biggest reward and motivation I could ever receive,” said Hogan. “I thank those that nominated me and the committee for choosing me. Most of all, I thank my family and my colleagues for always supporting me.”
Hogan has been a K-3 physical education teacher in the South Country School District for the past 27 years. She enjoys teaching students the value of personal health and fitness, cooperation, communication and overall well-being.
Hogan is also active with Suffolk Zone, having served in voluntary roles, as a past president and as the Zone Conference director, as well as participating in and organizing professional development events. Additionally, she has coordinated district events such as the annual high school, middle school and elementary leadership award ceremonies.
Throughout her career, Hogan has coached swimming and lacrosse. When not on the field watching her children, she volunteers as co-director for PAL lacrosse in her home district.
Hogan holds a B.A. in physical education from St. Bonaventure University and a master’s in liberal arts with a health concentration from Stony Brook University.
The South Country Central School District extends its congratulations to Kerry Hogan on this notable achievement.
