LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Families aren't the only ones getting back-to-school supplies.

Teachers are also stocking up for their classrooms and most of them have to spend their own money.

Mrs. Bianca Williamson is a second grade teacher at Doral Academy and spends hundreds of dollars getting ready to welcome students back to school.

While some of her supplies and decorations are donated by parents, she spends a lot of money out of her own pocket.
