Because typically gum chewers don't dispose of gum in paper in a trash can. They tend to put gum on or under seats, desks, floors, on walls, in peoples' hair and generally all over the place. Those dark circular-like spots you see on sidewalks and parking lots, etc are all gum. It is icky and disgusting to step in it and to have to look at it and schools don't want to have to pay someone to clean gum that students discard everywhere.and teachers are just drunk when they say that.
The constant snapping and chomping also causes anxiety in a lot of people who suffer in silence as the gum chewer mindlessly and thoughtlessly chomps away without regards as to how this affects others. It is very rude to snap and chomp gum in a public setting.

Also is the fact that gum snapping and chomping is as irritating as nails on a chalkboard to many people. The sound and sight of the chomper can cause great anxiety to silent sufferers.
