If she has a healthy: Well-balanced diet with enough protein, that's the best she can do. Her potential for further growth depends on her age & stage of puberty. If she's pre-pubertal, an x-ray of her hand & wrist will show her bone age, used in some formulas for predicting adult see height.http://m.jcem.endojournals.org/content/94/12/4868.abstract. She's a lovely height already, & slim.
