The panel in the background and the device in the foreground both look like something that one might find in a school's electrical shop classroom, or possibly an electronics shop. I don't recognize the equipment in the foreground, but the circular arrangement of jacks and markings on the two panels suggest that it may provide connections to some rotating electrical device like a motor or generator.
But this is not a machine shop, where most of the machinery would be designed to cut metal (e.g. lathe, milling machine, bandsaw).
This appears to the electricity / electronics shop at Gordon E. Perdue High School (now St. Thomas Aquinas). The adult (teacher) in the photo may be Mr. Jim Lees, who taught electricity / electronics at Perdue for many years.
