1098-T Form Received for High School Senior Enrolled in College Credit Plus

My daughter is a high school senior.  We still claim her as a dependent on our return but she files her own 1040 form for her income.  She is currently enrolled in College Credit Plus classes at her high school.  We received a 1098-T form for her tuition but we never paid anything for her to take these classes.  It's my understanding that they were paid for by either the state of Ohio or the college which held the classes through the high school.  Should I claim this form on my taxes?  On hers?  Or not at all since no money for her tuition ever came out of our pockets?

    Not at all since no money for her tuition ever came out of your pockets.  

    The 1098-T is only an informational document. The numbers on it are not required to be entered onto your tax return.
