Well, first up, undead. Undead are bad for morale anyway, due to the fear of being added to the army, the fact they're creepy af, the fact one of them might have been your kindly Unca John, and sometimes, due to aura type abilities.
Unlike humans, they don't get tired. They don't die easy. So those "few dozen" less? Matter much less than you'd think.
With the drummers, they're acting like a proper, understandable army, but you know they're not going to break rank or retreat. You know that if you run, you can only run so long before your lungs start giving out, but they don't have that problem.
Whether they actually are a superior enemy or not, all this makes them feel superior to your average soldier. And feels be important to morale.
And those few dozen soldiers are nowhere near you. And killing them would have no effect on the enemy's morale.
If I saw that, at best, I'd be feeling the pressure.
And of course, you're forgetting the context of what, less than 30 students? And a couplea hundred skeletons, with a mage they know is Disaster Class in the middle.
Even if you don't shit your pants, you can guarantee that several of your mates will. And when they run...
...When they run...

...See what just a little bit of imagining the scenario properly does? >:3
