Answers:
Just because you haven't gotten your period doesn't mean you won't stop growing. Don't worry about your height, I suspect that will be as tall as you get and that is a great height.
You will see in high school that you are not the tallest, in fact, kids today are much taller than when I was 13.
Some things you can do; make sure you eat healthy, not getting your period sometimes is related to low body fat. Are you skinny too? You may want to read about increasing your body mass (in a healthy way). Make sure you appreciate who you are, value yourself. Poor self image will lead you down a very bad path so at this age, begin to love who you are because people shorter don't have a better life.
Look at the facts; people who are tall make more money, get more job promotions, are more respected. Sad for short folks, but that is what a study showed. Also, if you aspire to do anything related to fashion, you have a great advantage because models are your height or taller.
When you see how tall the boys are in high school (especially by the time they are seniors) you won't think you are tall anymore. Most boys are at least 6 feet and often keep growing into their 20's.
Take care, stand tall and be proud of the body your parents gave you.
