You're welcome. Great start by the way. Nice bike, factory repair manual, MSF Class. Just get some good riding gear and you are all set for a lot of fun.

Mine will be different than yours due to the fact I ride a sportbike and you have a cruiser. Most cruisers seem to prefer less gear but here goes.

Helmet, full face
Jacket, leather or textile but with full armor
Pants or over pants with full armor
Gloves, reinforfed palm and armored knuckles
Boots, motocycle specific, no laces to tangle on pegs and shifter etc.

Might seem to be a lot, but when you experience road rash first hand, you would be wishing you had the gear!

They usually have helmets available, but something about putting on a helmet that has been passed around,Yuck! I'd buy my own helmet. A heavy jacket, gloves boots at least ankle high preferably with out laces. That will get you by for the class. You won't be doing any riding at speed.
