"Colegio 'Juan Lozano y Lozano'" was founded in 1984
in Bogotá. The institute is named after the poet, diplomat and
journalist Juan Lozano y Lozano (1902-1980).
The flag of the institute, according to a photo and the description
available on the website
of the institute, is red with the emblem of the institute in
the middle.
The emblem shown on the flag shows some differences with the
emblem shown graphically on the website of the institute. It is
made of a yellow triangle charged with stylized black letters
"JLL" and inscribed in a white disk. The red border of
the disk bears the black writing "COLEGIO DISTRITAL"
(top) / "JUNA LOZANO Y LOZANO" (bottom). There is
something written in black under the triangle, ending with
"...ITUD".
The emblem shown on the website has the white writing
"INSTITUCION EDUCATIVA DISTRITAL / JUAN LOZANO Y
LOZANO" and nothing written under the triangle. Therefore,
it seems that the flag was not "updated" when the
satutes and name of the institute were changed.
