Institucion Educativa San Bartolomé (INESAB) was established on 28 October
1965 in Córdoba (Nariño Department) by the parish priest Remigio Nicolás Narváez
Benavides. Classes started on 25 December 1965.
The flag of the institute is white with the institute's emblem in the middle.
White is a symbol of purity and rectitude.
The emblem of the institute is made of three concentric circles. The central
circle features a torch pointing to the north. As a guide and source of light,
the torch is a symbol of truth, liberty and personal education guided by
perseverance, audacity and adventure. The torch is supported by the Bible, a
symbol of the search for truth. The middle circle is charged with a cross
symbolizing struggle, force, and spiritual triumph. Light emerges from the cross
of Christ, as the eternal light of transcendence, resurrection, and
redemption. The external circle is charged with the writing "HOC SIGNO VINCIS"
(should be "IN HOC SIGNO VINCES" / In This Sign You Will Conquer) and "STO VIR"
(Should be "ESTO VIR" / "Be a Man"), which form the essence of the institute's
philosophy. Red is a symbol of love, courage, and spiritual highness. Yellow is a
symbol of light and knowledge.

Benedict (Benedictines). On 6 August 1960, Luis Concha Córdoba, Archbishop of
Bogotá, welcomed four monks - Lawrence Wagner, Frederic Mundt, Anselm Ruelle and

novices. Under the guidance of Father Valeriano Oldermann, the monks of Tibatí

Bogotá.
The flag of the institute, as shown graphically and described on
the institute's
website, is dark red with two right-angle triangles placed
along the hoist and a blue Greek letter "alpha" near
the hoist. The triangles form a wide perspective on which is
projected the "alpha" symbol.

depth of life, shown in the sky and the sea (blue), converge at
the infinite and feed the permanent retroalimentation of hope and
empathy with the natural environment (green).
