The 2006 U.S. Figure Skating Championships took place between January 7 and 15, 2006 at the Savvis Center in St. Louis, Missouri. Skaters competed in four disciplines – men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing – across three levels: senior, junior, and novice. Medals were awarded in four colors: gold (first), silver (second), bronze (third), and pewter (fourth).

The event was used to determine the U.S. teams for the 2006 Winter Olympics, the 2006 World Championships, the 2006 Four Continents Championships, and the 2006 World Junior Championships.

Competition notes[]

• This was the first time the ISU Judging System was used at the U.S. Championships.^[1][2]
• Novice ice dancing teams Madison Hubbell / Keiffer Hubbell and Cathy Reed / Chris Reed tied in the first novice compulsory dance. The tie was broken by the technical elements mark and so the Hubbells won that segment of the competition.^[3]
• Junior men's silver medalist was not placed on the World Junior Championships team because he was not age-eligible.
