New Instructor

I have recently started at a career college as an instructor. I feel as though I am slowly getting the hang of things but I am starting to have some student issues. I have a student faling my class and have called him/her in to talk about what is going on and how I can help. The response I got was "I am just not motivated to come to class or do my homework." To me this says this person just doesn't care. I have tried numerous things to get them to attend class only to be disappointed when they don't come or don't do the homework. I know I can't "save them all" but in a way I feel as if this is a failure on my part. Is there anything else I can do?
