    I've got an instance of high-performance mirroring setup, but I need to make some schema changes to the principal database.
    I can't find any documentation on the procedure here...will schema changes made on the principal get sent to the mirror? Or will I need to recreate the mirror by making a new backup?

    Any thoughts are appreciated.
    thanks

    Schema changes are logged operations and such operations will automatically applied to mirror database too.

    As Satya mentioned, you don't need to take any special considerations for schema changes when you are mirroring the db...
    May be you are thinking of replication but in 2005 schema changes can be replicated...
