Agnes Zawadzki (born July 31, 1994) is an American figure skater. She is the 2012 Rostelecom Cup bronze medalist and a two-time U.S. national bronze medalist (2012, 2013). As a junior, she was a two-time World Junior medalist (2010 silver, 2011 bronze) and the 2010 U.S. national junior champion.

Zawadzki's parents, originally from Gdańsk and southern Poland, moved to the United States in the early 1990s and divorced when she was three. After her father died when she was 10, her mother worked double shifts as a nanny and housekeeper to support her skating. She has an older brother, Bart.

Zawadzki attended Cheyenne Mountain High School, graduating in May 2012. She was the recipient of an outstanding academic achievement award signed by President George W. Bush. A poem she wrote in sixth grade was published in Anthology of Poetry by Young Americans. She also went to Chippewa Middle School in Des Plaines, Illinois. In autumn 2012, Zawadzki began studying at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs, majoring in psychology.

Agnes Zawadzki began skating at the age of 5 in the Chicago area. She also tried dance and gymnastics until deciding to concentrate on skating at the age of 10. While residing in Des Plaines, she was coached by David Santee for seven years, initially receiving group lessons at the Niles Ice Arena and later private lessons at the Oakton Ice Arena in Park Ridge.
