"Colegio de Educación Básica y Media Técnica 'José
Benigno Perilla'", founded in Somondoco (Department of
Boyacá) by María Lidia Puentes González (b. 1939), was
recognized on 10 August 1962 by the Department of Boyacá (Decree
No. 546), as "Escuela Normal Superior Femenina 'José
Benigno Perilla' de Somondoco". The institute is named after
José Benigo Perilla (1831-1893), second Archbishop of Tunja
(1887-1893).
The flag of the institute is shown graphically on the website of the
institute, as horizontally divided white-green with the
emblem of the institute in the middle. White means purity while
green means hope. The written description does not mention the
emblem; moreover, the flag is said to have been officially
approved in 1970 whereas the emblem was designed in 1981.
Therefore I beleive that the flag actually used is without the
emblem.
The emblem of the institute was designed in 1981 by student
Abraham Sánchez Sánchez. The shield is divided into four
concave quarters by a red cross. The upper left quarter shows a
white open book on a green field. The upper right quarter shows a
red quill and inkpot on a hwite field. The lower left quarter
shows a red torch on a white field. The lower right quarter shows
a white diploma on a green field. A white escutcheon charged with
a green pair of scales is placed in the middle of the shield. The
shield is topped by a golden mural crown. The green
writing "Colegio de Educación Básica y Media
Técnica José Benigno Perilla Somondoco Boyacá" is placed
on a scroll under the shield. The cross recalls the cultural
heritage and, especially, His Grace José Benigno Perilla; red
symbolizes the sacrifice and constancy expected form the
students. The book is the symbol of science, culture and work.
The quill and inkpot symbolize empowerment, commitment and
creativity. The torch is the symbol of knowledge and eternal
spitritual light. The diploma symbolizes abnegation and great
expectations. White and green are taken from the flag of the
institute.The pair of scales represents commerce. The mural crown
represents integrity, firmness and education expected to form a
fortress. Gold is the symbol of obedience.

Institución Educativa Técnica Industrial José Maria Córdoba was
established in El Santuario (Antioquia Department) by State Law No. 80
of 29 November 1962, promulgated on 19 December 1962, as Escuela de
Artes y Oficios. Merged by Decree with Liceo San Luis Gonzaga in 1969,
the institute recovered its autonomy in 1971 on a juridical basis: the
Decree that had invalidated the original State Law was declared null
and void (because a Law can be invalidated only by another Law, not by
a Decree). The school was renamed Instituto Técnico Industrial
Nacional (ITIN) in 1978. In 1979, President of the Republic Julio
César Turbay Ayala (1978-1982), when visiting the town for the
commemoration of the 150 years of death of General José María Córdoba
(1799-1829), decided to rename the institute for the general, a hero
of the Wars of Independence against Spain - also the namesake of
Córdoba Department.
Institución Educativa Técnica Industrial José Maria Córdoba was
eventually established by Departmental Resolution No. 696 of 4
February 2003 as the merger of ITIN and Escuela Eusebio María Gómez.
The flag of the institute is horizontally divided green-white with the
institute's emblem in the middle.
The emblem, designed in 1974 by the student Rodrigo Vargas Ramírez, is
made of a disk divided green-white according to the ascending
diagonal, charged with a pair of compasses and, in base, a flaming
torch, and framed by a golden yellow cogwheel inscribed with the
institute's name and place.
