A "capo" is placed on the neck to change the vibration length of the strings. It is used to raise the pitches of the guitar strings. The capos below are designed for classic guitar necks. I do not prefer the "elastic" ones, so I have not included them. If you own an steel-string guitar, you'll want one that is specifically designed for those guitars.

Sometimes called a "foot stool," the purpose of a foot rest is to elevate the left leg so that the head of the guitar is at eye level. Get one that is foldable and adjusts to multiple levels.

If, at purchase, your guitar didn't come with a bag or case, you'll need something to protect your instrument when you carry it to and from your lessons. The simplest solution is a gig bag. The sizes are a bit more broad than guitar sizes. Buy the correct size or just a touch bigger, for your guitar. Below are mostly classical guitar bags.
Guitars are supposed to be kept in environments with a 45%-50% relative humidity level. The dry desert environment of Las Vegas, normally below 25% relative humidity, may cause the wood of your guitar to dry out, warp or crack. You can keep your guitar hydrated to the proper humidity level with a guitar humidifier; more expensive versions come with a hygrometer (humidity monitor) or you can buy them separately.
Some humidifiers hang from the strings of your guitar and others clip or lay inside your case. If you have a Gig Bag, these latter types may pose a challenge.

Musicians use metronomes for practice; however, they are not for everybody. These days you have many options: free phone apps, internet metronome sites, electronic, or mechanical (old school, but elegant). Metronomes tend to be a value to musicians, however they can be a great annoyance to the rest of the family. Click - click- click! Consider one that can be made personal by the use of an ear plug and/or volume adjustment.
Modern electronic metronomes come with tuners and an ambient mic that is acceptable in quiet solitude. Consider a contact mic if you it use as a tuner (see below). Again, you'll want one that comes with an ear plug input and volume adjustment capability.
