The boundary to outer space is customarily taken as being 100 km (=62 miles) above the surface of the earth. Therefore, one might say that the sky is 100 km high.

the point of this question is that it depends on what you define as "sky"
if it's wherever there's air, then there are mines like the East Rand mine that are roughly 10,000 ft deep. So the answer would be -10,000 ft. maybe less.
if sky = atmosphere, then it's maximum height is the upper limit of the upper atmosphere (the exosphere), then the answer would be "between 10,000 feet below sea level and less than 6215 miles above sea level".
if it's what you can see when you look up, it's less than the distance from the earth to the edge of the universe = 46.5 billion light years.
can you touch the sky? yes

In the daytime, aside from the moon and sun, what we see of the sky is mostly limited to the troposphere and stratosphere (layers of the atmosphere nearest the earth). The highest clouds are rarely higher than about 7 miles in altitude.
In the nightime, the objects of the visible sky are huge distances away. The furthest thing readily visible to the naked eye is the Andromeda Galaxy, which is about 2.5 million light years away.

the sky starts at our feet and ends as it reaches the exosphere so it is prbly about like 20000 km above ground.
