A few comments:
–First of all, while a 1200 SAT may be disappointing, it is not a bad score. It is in the 74th- 81st percentile, not too far off from her class ranking.
–Have you explored the amazing test optional colleges out there? Some are on your list already. Here is the full list sorted by state. https://www.fairtest.org/university/optional/state
–I think you are a bit cautious in terms of your ranking of colleges. I see Sarah Lawrence, Clark more as matches (not familiar enough with all of the school to opine).
–When you consider distance be sure to look at the entire trip, not just the flight. Some of the colleges on your list are way closer to major airports than others.
