No there isn't. I was well under 5' going into grade 8 (I was the shortest in my class by a lot). By the end of grade 9 I was 5'8". By the time grade 10 was ending I hit 6'. I didn't get my coordination going until well after I graduated. Large growth spurts are very, very difficult to deal with. I also didn't gain much weight compared to the height gain, which isn't uncommon. He needs time to pack on muscle and acclimate to his body as it changes.
