Did you know that in 1896, Compton High School was a one-room School House? It graduated its’ first class in 1898. From 1898 to 1901 the student enrollment was 153 students, which was larger than its’ beginning. Back then the Ladies wore angle length skirts; as pant wearing were not permitted, while the Men wore suits and ties. During this time the school mascot was not a Tarbabe, as it is today, but rather a Lion. The colors were Maroon and White as opposed to our current Columbia blue and White. Between 1914 and 1925, the student body increased to a whopping 1,000 students thus forcing the major construction of twelve new buildings. Two years later (1927) a community college was added to the campus so that graduating seniors could pursue a college education within the campus. It was this time that the mascot changed from a lion to the TARTARS (A Mongolian Warrior). The college was known for being “Adult” Tartars while the high school was consider “Baby” Tartars.
In 1933 an earthquake destroyed the administration building, but this did not stop the growth of the students’ enrollment. By 1935 the building was reconstructed and Compton was back to the business of educating its students. In 1953, due to the growth of the population with-in the school and the city of Compton itself, it became necessary to separate the high school and college facilities. Regardless, of the separation, the college “Tartars”, continued to wear Maroon and White, but the high school “Baby Tartars” changed to the current colors of Columbia blue and White.
The Baby Tartars have had many nicknames over the years: Little Tartars, Tartar babies, Babes, and “Tar-Babes”, which so happen to be the most popular. Over the years, the face of the Tar-Babe has dramatically changed. In 1996 Compton High School celebrated its rich 100-year history of academic and athletic excellence along with its diverse population. We continue today to meet, overcome and manage any changes and challenges that we face within the 21st century, just as we did so successfully in the past.

Compton College‘s mascot name is the Tartars, named after the Turkic Tatars, so the mascot name for Compton High School became the Tartar Babies. The mascot itself is “Baby Tartar” who wears a diaper and carries a big sword.[3][4]

Malachi 4 1-6 “For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. The day that is coming shall set them ablaze, says the LORD of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. 2 But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall. 3 And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day when I act, says the LORD of hosts. 4 “Remember the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel. 5 “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes. 6 And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the land with a decree of utter destruction.”
