It is good for your bones.
I hear a lot of people say that milk is only necessary for pregnant and nursing moms and small children.
If you are getting enough nutrients, vitamins and minerals especially for growth, you are probably okay without emphasizing on drinking a lot of milk.

If you are thin, you look taller than if you are heavy.

from a science site --

"How bones grow in length

A long bone, such as your femur (thigh bone), grows in length at either end in regions called growth plates. Growth occurs when cartilage cells divide and increase in number in these growth plates. These new cartilage cells push older, larger cartilage cells towards the middle of a bone. Eventually, these older cartilage cells die and the space they occupied is replaced with bone. When a bone has reached its full size, its growth plates are converted into bone.

Long bone growth comes to an end around the end of puberty. When long bone growth stops, you stop getting taller."
