I'm 15, a sophomore in high school, and missing 5'0" by 2 millimeters.
My dad's 5'4" and a half and my mom's 5'3" and a half, so my whole family is short. My dad hit his growth spurt in high school (aren't boys later?) and my mom hit her's in middle school.
I haven't had mine yet. I'd love to be about 5'5". But realistically speaking, I hope to make it to about 5'2"
I've talked to some of my older friends who said over the coarse of high school they only grew 1-2 inches. Will I grow any more? About how much do you think?

I hit my growth spurt in middle school when I grew from from about 5' 2" to about 5' 6.5". In high school, so far I have grown about an inch and a half and have reached 5' 8". Most of my friends have stopped growing, but it all depends on the person and their body. You could grow anywhere from 1-4 inches in reality, it just depends on your genetics and body chemistry.
I grew about 4 inches in the summer between 7th grade and 8th grade. So from about 5'3 to 5'7. And I'm going to be a senior in high school and I'm 5'8 1/2. You could hit your growth at any time. Don't worry about it. Some people grow sooner, some later. It'll happen. It might not be much, but it'll happen.
I am an anomaly. My father was 5'7" and my mother was 4'11'. When I entered high school, I was 4'10 1/2" and weighed about 75lbs. When I graduated, I was 5'5 1/2" and weighed about 105 lbs. I still looked 13 or 14 years old, hadn't gone through puberty and had long legs and arms. Then an unusual thing happened. When I was a junior in college (and had grown to about 5'7"), I started to grow substantially. I went from 5'7" to 6'2". I still was very thin (about 140-150 lbs). I was between 19 and 20 years old. I read where it is called Constitutional Growth Delay. Now, I tower over all of my brothers and sisters, cousins etc... My two sons experienced something similar and both grew late. The oldest grew from around 5'4" as a senior in high school to now 5'9". The younger one grew during high school from 5'5" as a sophomore to 6'1" as a senior. He then grew a little more in college to now 6'3". I am now 51 years old and weigh about 217 though I have spent most of my adult life around 190-200. That is a more comfortable weight for me. Moral of my story is "it's never too late - - stranger things have happened"
I'm also a sophomore. I already had my growth spurt. Actually I think I've had two and am pretty much done growing as I fit in clothes from 8th grade still (I'm a girl). I mainly see boys shooting up in high school.
I think I had my growth spurt before middle school and it was about 8 inches...to 5'4". Then I think after that I think I got to 5'8" and stopped early in my freshmen year. Fact one of my aunts said after you start your period you are done growing after two years of it but I'm not so sure....
My almost 12 year old cousin who is a boy, his doctor says he is about to grow a lot and he is 3 years away from high school.
About 3 - 4 inches
