I loved surprising our Montessori school with my kid. All I said was "She's 2 1/3. She's advanced. You'll see." Without providing anything else. No evidence. Just that it would be completely clear. And sure enough, they asked *us* within a month if they could move her up to an older class because of her communication skills and pencil grip and following instructions.

Her prior non-montessori daycare wouldn't have let her move up to the older class until she was 3 years old. I do not look forward to the fight I'm going to have to have with public school about her skipping kindergarden because she knows practically everything 2 years before they'll let her enroll.
