The new policy affects students in grades 6 through 12. District officials say the cups can be heavy and pose a safety risk if misused.
Students are allowed to bring plastic water bottles or lightweight, clear refillable cups instead.
The district says the change is a proactive step to keep schools safe and focused on learning.
