Water, as other liquids, has "surface tension" which tries to pull the water into the smallest volume. When put into a glass the surface of the water behaves as if it has a skin. However, that part around the circumference of the glass where the water touches the glass tries to climb the glass, so creating a "meniscus". If you add soap to water its surface tension is greatly reduced so it is less able to form a curved upwards meniscus where it meets the glass.
