You don't need to do anything. Box 6 is for a reduction in scholarships or grants for a prior year. So, in 2017, she probably had a scholarship or grant that was reduced or not used for some reason.
The only need for an amendment would be if, in 2017, she was not allowed to take a credit because some or all of her expenses were covered by scholarships and grants. If those were reduced and she really did pay out of pocket, she could be eligible for education credits.
Box 6 has no bearing on the 2018 tax year.
