Now that I know the loans are in your name:
If I personally found myself in your shoes I would make minimum payments until I was age 59.5 then pay them off from my Roth IRA. No tax impact. You can also take out your Roth contributions at any age and pay them off if you have enough.

I paid 8% and 9% for my student loans 40 years ago. I had a little more than a fourth as much debt as your daughter does. I am about the same age as you. I got mine paid off in about seven years.
