You'll get taller! I was 5'5" in 8th grade. I grew until i was 21. now i;m 6'2".

I am 30 years old and only 4'11". I am not short and neither are you. Consider it being vertically challenged! :)

your fine.
Hang around shorter kids than you,at least that will make you seem taller right ?

Your height seems about right, Im nearly 16 and im 5'8. But if your parents are tall then you may get taller because your body isnt fully grown yet.

They are all different heights cause of their genetics, meaning their parents maybe taller than others.

BTW: Im from TX

naa ur norman hight

Im in 9th grade as well and 56 and 57 seem to be the average height

you're pretty short, yes, but you may have a growth spurt and get taller.

I can reference a self-made man on the east coast, of your stature as you described it. The city people must have overlooked the height, and ONLY heard/appreciated his advice and work on their accounts. He became a sought expert in his field, got respect as if he were 5 foot 11" . ..

(Also run, don't walk, and check out a biography of Simon Bolivar from a library - a shorter than avg. general/president.)

.. That's from clients and the founders/business partners alike. Wealthy, to the point where it mattered not whether you would be average height; he was basically ABOVE average in most things that mattered.
It is not said whether you are male or female; but a dude sounds pretty clearly 'Texas guy'. Chill out on it; you've some years to get bigger, as indeed the guy profiled above came up from 5 5 1/2, at 15, to 5' 6 or 7" at 18 years of age. H.t.hlps.

Not really. The average height for a 15 year old male is 5'10, and eeven though you have a 4 inch difference, thats really not too much. 15 year old girls are 5'7 on average, so if you're worried about the ladies opinion of your height, don't. I'm 15 and 5'7, and my boyfriend is 5'7. If he was 5'6 I'd still like him, so don't worry abot the height. :]

you may just be a late bloomer, you are already taller than my wife who is 5"1 at 32. dont worry about it, you are just fine. at 15 i doubt that you are done growing yet.
