to be 13 in 8th grade, 5"2 and almost 90lbs
is that under, over, or normal weight?

i think you're under...
but just eat normal because once you hit puberty (or aready in)... the extra fattening stuff will catch up faster than you think.
remember to exercise and be healthy :]

Kayla:
I have a 10 year old step daughter w/ is just about 2 inches shorter than you & is about 80-90 lbs. Her older brother is almost 13 & tips the scales at MAYBE an even 100 lbs; they are both skinny kids.
I would say you're doing just fine. You're ONLY 13 years old! Don't worry about your weight, hon. I can tell you this much: 90 lbs sounds perfectly normal to me. As long as you are happy with yourself & confident that people will like you for WHO you are, thats all that really matters. Best of Luck!

Sometimes puberty can start later then 13 however if this concerns you, you can see an endocrinologist. (A Growth Doctor)

Check your BMI index. You sound normal to me. =)

your weight is fine -- no worries there.
