Here's a new sample draft, incorporating many of the thoughts and ideas shared in this thread.
Thank you for meeting with us on_______ to discuss the possibility of early kindergarten entrance for our son.
In keeping with the "next steps" discussed at that meeting, we are presenting his test scores, letters of recommendation from his preschool teachers, and this official request letter showing that both parents are in agreement that early entrance to kindergarten is in our child's best interests.
It is our preference that he be admitted to Transitional Kindergarten in Fall 2015 (at age 4.xx) and Full-time Kindergarten in Spring, 2016 (at age 5.yy).
We understand that prior to making a decision on early entrance, the district will conduct further testing, and we look forward to having a copy of those test results and interpretations.
If further information is required for making this important decision, we'd like to suggest use of the Iowa Acceleration Scale. Additional information about acceleration is available from the Acceleration Institute, including Guidelines for Developing an Academic Acceleration Policy, Co-authored by the Acceleration Institute, the National Association for Gifted Children, & the Council of State Directors of Programs for the Gifted.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
____________
Notes:
The phrase "best interests of the child" was taken from the material linked as State policy on acceleration - CA.
I believe the Iowa Acceleration Scale covers other data points, therefore I did not mention them in this draft.
The overall idea here was to touch on law, policy, and established process so that you & your district may use those items as a guide for transparent decision making, in which all parties may have confidence going forward.
