Contact the Bureau of Vital Statistics and they can direct you on how to amend your daughters birth certificate. I had to do this same thing in order for them to admit my daughter into public school. It does not take long and the process is pretty straight forward.
I can't remember the exact details as to what's entailed but it's a fairly easy process that can be done over the phone or even online, possibly.
Under a search engine, type in (state name) & bureau of vital statistics. It should have the information you're looking for there.

You may have to file a petition with the court for a name change, so she can get an official birth certificate with the right name on it.
